Summary Introduction

To identify: The major events of skeletal muscle fiber contraction.

Introduction: The skeletal muscle tissue comprises of muscle fibers. The muscle fibers are contractile and even constrict and relax upon neuronal stimulation, which takes place at the neuromuscular junction. The point of junction of a motor nerve fiber and a muscle fiber is referred to as a motor end plate.
