 | Definition 
 
        | 1) action potential moves along the sarcolemma ca2+ ions are released from the sacrocoplasmic reticulum 2) calcium ions bind to troponin/regulatory proteins that protect myosin binding sites) and cause them to change shape and position.
 3) the movement of these regulatory proteins exposes myosin binding sites
 4) cross bridges (myosin heads) attach to exposed myosin binding sites on the filaments
 5) ATP provides energy- as cross bridges bind, heads snap towards center of sarcomere, pulling the thin filamens along
 6) ATP provides energy to release the myosin heads.
 7) myosin heads reattach to next binding site- process continues and thin filaments move closer together
