The sarcoplasmic reticulum stores large amounts of calcium because calcium, when released, aids in muscle contraction. Skeletal muscles release calcium and contract when they receive signals from neurons, or nerve cells, that control muscle movement.
3. Describe the process of excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle fibers. ACH is released at the end-plate potential. ACH diffuses into the sarcolemma, attaches to the receptors in the motor end plate and causes a change in the ions permeability that creates graded depolarization of the end-plate potential.
