Chapter 10, Problem 4CAL
Rigor mortis occurs following death because
- a. tropomyosin remains over the myosin binding sites of actin.
- b. myosin heads attach to actin and are not released due to lack of ATP.
- c. the myosin becomes misshapen.
- d. all of the Ca2+ remains within the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

B. to replace the strap and cover the binding sites
C. to give feedback to the neuron that contraction occurred
D. to un-bind myosin from actin and re-set for another powerstroke.
