An electrical stimulation in the form of an action potential delivered in a rhythmic pattern triggers the release of calcium from the cell's internal calcium store, the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The rise in calcium causes the cell's myofilaments to slide past each other in a process called excitation contraction cou |
