Solution

The correct order of events for excitation-contraction coupling is as follows:

  1. A nerve impulse causes ACh to be released at a neuromuscular junction.
  2. The T tubules carry the action potential to the interior of the muscle fiber.
  3. Calcium ions are released into the sarcoplasm.
  4. Calcium ions bind to troponin molecules on the actin myofilaments.
  5. The troponin-tropomysin complex moves, exposing active sites on the actin myofilaments.
  6. The heads of myosin myofilaments bind to sites on the actin myofilaments, forming cross-bridges.
