Muscle contraction incorrect order Calcium allows myosin to bind to the actin. A message travels down the axon of a nerve. Myosin pulls on the actin causing the muscle to shorten. An electrical wave of the action potential travels across the muscle cell and deep into the interior of the cell. The end of the axon of the nerve releases the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine. The electrical charge causes calcium to be released into the cytoplasm of the muscle. The neurotransmitter, acetylcholine travels across the space between the axon ending and the muscle. The neurotransmitter, acetylcholine, binds to receptors on 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.
