Explain what happens once calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum until the sarcomere contracts.
calcium binds to troponin which causes the tropomyosin to show the myosin binding sites on actin. The myosin head with the ADP and P on them then binds the actin binding site pulling the actin towards each other causing the sarcomere to contract.

Explain how insulin helps decrease blood sugar start with blood sugar increasing. Be specific.
blood sugar increases which causes the beta cells on the pancreas to release insulin into the blood. Insulin travels to the liver cells and attaches to the insulin receptor which opens the glucose transporter and lets glucose in. Excess glucose is stored as glycogen.
