Question
How would muscle contractions be affected if ATP was completely depleted in a muscle fiber?
Answers
Without ATP, the myosin heads cannot detach from the actin-binding sites. All of the "stuck" cross-bridges result in muscle stiffness. In a live person, this can cause a condition like "writer's cramps." In a recently dead person, it results in rigor mortis.   Your Comment
