True regarding excitation contraction coupling in smooth muscle is

A
Presence of troponin is essential
B
Sustained contraction occurs with high calcium concentration
C
Phosphorylation of actin is required for contraction
D
Presence of cellular calcium is essential to cause muscle contraction
High-Yield Explanation
Ans. (d) Presence of cellular calcium is essential to cause muscle contraction(Ref: Ganong, 25th ed/p.116)Troponin is absent in smooth muscleSustained contraction (latch) occurs with less use of ATPPhosphorylation of myosin is required for smooth muscle contraction
