the summary of events in a muscle contraction

1) ACh is released from a neuron ending into the synaptic cleft at the NJM. 2) ACh binds to the muscle's motor end plate & produces an action potential. 3) the action potential travels to the SR (sarcoplasmic reticulum). 4) the SR (sarcoplasmic reticulum) releases calcium into the cytoplasm. 5) calcium shifts troponin & tropomyosin so that binding sites on actin are exposed. 6) myosin heads bind to actin, forming cross-bridges. 7) using stored energy, myosin heads pull actin filaments together within the sarcomeres & the cell shortens. 8) new ATP is used to detach myosin heads & move them back to position for another "power stroke." 9) muscle relaxes when stimulation ends & the calcium is pumped back into the SR.
