What is the role of acetylcholine in muscle contraction?
1. It is used to link nerve pulse with receptors in the muscle.
2. It makes upper part of the muscle fibres degenerate
3. The myosin heads use acetylcholine to bind to action filaments
4. It maintains contraction of a muscle in a manner similar to a brake

Rigor mortis (stiffness after death) occurs due to muscle contraction. However, it lasts for 24 hours and then disappears. This is because:
1. The body looses rigidity due to decay of muscle protein
2. Proteolytic enzymes get deactivated
3. Ca2+ channels in the sarcoplasmic reticulum are closed after 24 hours
4. Cross-linkages between myosin and actin gets reformed
