1. Production of erythrocytes
2. Storage of minerals
3. Production of body heat
4. Locomotion
| A. | It is initiated by a signal sent by CNS via sensory neuron. |
| B. | Neurotransmitter generates action potential in the sarcolemma. |
| C. | Increased Ca++ level leads to the binding of calcium with troponin actin filaments. |
| D. | Masking of active site for actin is activated. |
| E. | Utilising the energy from ATP hydrolysis to form cross bridge. |
1. B, C and E only
2. C, D and E only
3. A and D only
4. B, D and E only
| Assertion (A): | After death, the body muscles get stiff as a state of partial contraction of muscles. |
| Reason (R): | Attachment of the myosin head to unexposed sites on actin can take place partially. |

| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A) |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
