Solution

The correct option is A Calcium
A. Calcium
EXPLANATION: Release of calcium helps in relaxation of a skeletal muscle fibre. The muscle fiber will repolarize , which closes the gates in the sarcoplasmic reticulum where Ca++ was being released. Then calcium is pumped back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, which is the link between actin and myosin.
So, the correct answer is option A.
