When we recruit more motor units, what is happening at the organ/cell/molecular level? more myofibrils within a muscle cell are activated more muscle cells are excited the rate of crossbridge cycling is increased the number of myosin heads bound to actin within a muscle cell is increased more Ca++ is released into the cyoplasm of the muscle cell
