    The answer is; A

    When an impulse from the motor neuron reached the neuromuscular junction, the voltage-dependent calcium channels are activated and the neurotransmitter released from the presynaptic cleft. When the neurotransmitter binds to their receptors on the sarcolemma, the muscle fibers become depolarised; the calcium is released from their vesicles. The Ca2 + ions are important in the power stroke because they bind to troponin. Upon binding calcium, troponin moves tropomyosin away from the myosin-binding sites on actin. Powered by the energy from ATP molecule, the myosin is able to bind on the actin and slides over the actin filament.
