How is muscle contraction stopped? Which of the following is/are correct?   A) The brain stops sending the nerve impulse that commands the muscle to contract, interrupting communication at the neuromuscular junction B) Acetylcholineesterase (AChE) is released into the synaptic cleft to destroy any remaining Acetylcholine C) No mechanism is necessary. When the antagonist begins to contract, it forces relaxation and stretch of the agonist muscle. D) Relaxation occurs as the myosin heads are "snapped" off of the thick filaments. This interrupts the crossbridge and allows for muscles to stretch  E) Relaxation only occurs if the brain sends a "stop" signal to the muscle

Muscle Action

A change in the body or a bodily organ as a result of its functioning is referred to as an action. Muscle action can be defined as the specific movement of a bodily part generated by the contraction of a muscle. The muscle proteins actin and myosin are the important contractile proteins involved in muscle action. Muscle contraction, in addition to movement, serves several other important functions in the body, including posture, heat generation, and joint stability. Muscle contraction maintains posture, which includes standing and sitting.
