Relaxation Phase

Cholinesterase released and acetylcholine breakdown

Sarcolemma & T-tubules repolarized

SR Ca++ pump activated & Ca++ returned to SR terminal cisternae

Actin-myosin crossbridge formation terminated

Return of tropomyosin to actin binding site

Mg++ complex formed with ATP

Passive sliding of filaments

Sarcomeres return to resting state
