order for a muscle to contract requires a nerve impulse to arrive at the neurotransmitter junction. This then causes a release of acetylcholine (ACh) from the presynaptic terminal. By binding with its receptors on the membrane of the muscle fiber‚ which opens sodium channels generating an action potential that spreads through the length of the fiber‚ stimulating release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Calcium is what activates the contractile mechanism‚ causing the muscle fiber to shorten

Its cells are crowded with mitochondria‚ thousands of little factories constantly turning out molecules of ATP‚ a refined fuel. There are three types of muscles that can be found in our body.
