Both muscle relaxation and muscle contraction require ATP.
true
During muscle contraction the actin heads pull the sarcomere closed
Inhalation requires the contraction of the diaphragm, which takes ATP. Exhalation is simply the passive relaxation of that muscle, in which the atmospheric pressure causes the lung to deflate, taking no ATP.
creatine phosphate, anaerobic cellular respiration, aerobic cellular respiration
ATP is analogous to merchandising because it is used as a currency. ATP is referred to as the energy currency of the cell, which is used for various processes such as muscle contraction.
ATP
ATP is important in muscle contraction. ATP is high energy bond which gives you energy required for muscle contraction.
ATP is the energy currency of the cell (or the fuel). The energy is store in the high energy phosphate bonds.The 3 primary functions of ATP are1) maintenance of the Na/K pump (Sodium-potassium pump or ATPase)2) production of mechanical energy in the contraction and relaxation of muscle3) action potential signalling
reuptake of calcium by the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Adenosine triphosphate or ATP is the energy currency of the cell. One example where ATP is used is for muscle contraction.
