Answer
Calcium ions releasing ATP for energy
Calcium ions binding with troponin, which shifts tropomyosin and allows the myosin-binding sites on actin to be exposed
Neuromuscular junctions directly producing the movement of actin and myosin
Actin filaments moving the myosin filaments in each sarcomere

Question
The junction between a nerve and a muscle is called a_____________.

Answer
Neuromuscular junction
Synapse
Sarcomere
Neurotransmitter
