Which of the following statements is incorrect?

1. A new ATP binds and cross-bridge is broken with the next cycle of contraction

2. The process of contraction continues till the calcium ions are pumped back to the sarcoplasmic cisternae and resulting in the unmasking of actin Filaments

3. The reaction time of the fibres can vary in different muscles

4. Both 1 and 3
