Cоmplete the fоllоwing sentences regаrding excitаtion-contrаction coupling 1. When an action potential arrives at the axon terminal [q1] enters through voltage-setive channels. 2. This triggers the release of [q2] from the axon terminal. 3. This diffuses from the axon terminal to the [q3] of the skeletal muscle fiber. 4. It then binds to [q4] on the motor endplate membrane, increasing their permeability to Na+ and K+ 5. More [q5] moves into the fiber at the motor endplate than [q6] moves out, depolarizing the membrane and producing a [q7] . K
