Muscle contractions are due to the sliding-filament model where the filaments slide longitudinally past each other producing an overlap between thin and thick filaments. The sliding filaments rely on the reaction between actin and myosin. Calcium ions bind to the troponin complex on the actin filaments and cause the tropomyosin to change the orientation of the actin filament to expose the myosin head binding sites on the actin filament. Glycolysis and aerobic respiration generate adenosine triphosphate
