    The generation of excitation-contraction coupling involves all the following events except

    A)  generation of end- plate potential

    B)  release of calcium from troponin

    C)  formation of cross-linkages between actin and myosin

    D)  hydrolysis of ATP to ADP

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    The generation of excitation contraction coupling involves following events: (i) Action potential as impulse passes from motor end plate over sarcolemma. (ii) Stimulation of sarcolemma to release \[C{{a}^{2+}}\] ions into sarcoplasm. (iii) Binding of \[C{{a}^{2+}}\]to troponin causing change in shape and position of tropomyosin. (iv) Formation of cross-bridges between actin and myosin.
