Which of the following would interfere most with a muscle's ability to contract?
| a reduced number of T tubules |
| a reduced number of actin and myosin filaments |
| an increased level of intracellular calcium |
| absence of acetylcholine binding sites on the muscle membrane |
Homework Answers
I think, a reduced number of actin and myosin filaments would interfere most with a muscle's ability to contract.
Because myosin-actin cross bridge is very important for muscle contraction. ATP breaks this cross bridge and freeing myosin for next contraction. So when the number of actin and myosin are less then muscle contraction is affected.

1. True -False. If a statement is True, place a T to the left of it. If a statement is False, place an F to the left of it. Thin filaments in smooth muscles attach to Z discs. The majority of ventricular filling occurs during the period of atrial contraction known as the period of rapid filling. Closure of the atrioventricular valves occurs at the end of diastole/beginning of systole. Tetanus in skeletal muscles is the result of increasing the...

Which of the following statements about skeletal muscle contraction is false? During muscle contraction, the Z discs move closer together as the myosin heads move toward the plus ends of the actin filaments. The changes in voltage across the plasma membrane that occur when a muscle cell receives a signal from the nervous system causes Ca2+ to flow into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, triggering a muscle contraction. An action potential in the muscle cell plasma membrane leads to voltage-gated calcium channels...
