When an action potential arrives at the neuromuscular junction, acetylcholine is released into the synaptic cleft and binds to receptors in the postsynaptic membrane. Which of the following represents the correct order of the next series of events? A. An action potential travels down the T tubules, depolarization spreads through the T tubules, Ca2+ is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and myosin binds to actin. B. Ca2+ is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, an action potential travels down the T tubules, depolarization spreads through the T tubules, and myosin binds to actin. C. An action potential travels down the T tubules, depolarization spreads through the T tubules, Ca2+ is taken up by the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and myosin binds to actin. D.
