What is the function of the transverse tubule?
A) the storage of calcium ions
B) to transmit muscle impulses to the cell's interior
C) to store sodium ions
D) to allow cross-bridge attachment
E) all of the above

Answer:

The storage of calcium ions. (Ans. A)

Explanation:

T-tubule are the extension part of the cell membrane (which contains a large number of transporters, pumps & ion channels) which penetrate the central skeletal & cardiac muscle cell.

The primary function of the transverse tubule (T-tubule) is to storage and providing calcium ions for muscles contraction. T-tubule allows rapid movement of the action potential, & play a very important role in releasing cellular calcium concentration. Through this process, transverse tubule allows heart muscle cell contract forcefully by calcium (synchronizing) release from the cell.
