Which of the following ions help in muscle contraction?
Options
(a) K⁺ and Mg⁺⁺
(b) Na⁺ and K⁺
(c) Ca⁺⁺ and Na⁺
(d) Ca⁺⁺ and Mg⁺⁺
Correct Answer:
Ca⁺⁺ and Mg⁺⁺
Explanation:
Ca²⁺ as well as Mg⁺⁺ help in muslce contraction. Actin and myosin get combined in presence of ATP and Ca²⁺ to form actomyosin to Myosin + Actin –ATP/Ca²⁺—> Actomysin Energy released by the oxidation of food in the form of ATP is broken down into ADP, phosphorus and energy in the presence of enzyme myosin ATPase, Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ions. ATP + H₂O —myosin ATPase/Ca²⁺,Mg²⁺—–> ADP + Pi+ Energy The energy is used up in the contraction of muscle.
