29. What is the role of tropomyosin in muscle contraction? O to prevent myosin from continuing to slide up the actin filament O to release calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum O to release troponin from tropomyosin, allowing myosin to bind to actin filament to aid in myosin 'cocking' on the actin filament
