Question Answer
Step 1- ATP binds Myosin dissociates from Actin
Step 2- ATP hydrolysis Lever arm moves to power stroke position, myosin binds to new actin site
Step 3- Pi is released POWERSTROKE- other arm is thrown forewards and bound arm moves to post stroke position
Step 4- Strained 'Waiting' State ADP is released- head becomes 'nucleotide free'
