1. It is easier to carry a small body weight
2. Smaller animals have a higher metabolic rate
3. Small animals have a lower O2 requirement
4. The efficiency of muscles in large animals is less than in the small animals

Calcium is important in skeletal muscle contraction because it

1. Detaches the myosin head from the actin filament
2. Activates the myosin ATPase by binding on it
3. Binds to troponin to remove the masking of active sites on actin for myosin
4. Prevents the formation of bonds between the myosin cross bridges and the actin filament
