A. Your nerves induce muscles to contract by secreting a neurotransmitter, acetylcholine. This binds with receptors, which depolarize the plasma membrane, propagating an action potential down to the "T tubules", which stimulate release of Calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. These calcium ions bonds with troponin, which changes the shape and allows mysin to move along actin, contracting the muscle. Then, actylcholinesterase breaks down the ACh, and thus action potential ends. Calcium is then pumped back into the SR

A.

Acetylcholine (Ach) is released by the motor neurons to stimulate depolarization of the muscle cell. Acetylcholinsterase catalyzes its breakdown into an acetyl group and choline, effectively discontinuing the depolarizing effect. As this transpires, the muscle begins to relax.
