Energy from ATP is used to create a ____ between the two filaments.
A
ATP
B
Power Stroke
C
Cross Bridge
D
none of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Abstract. Motile forces in muscle are generated by the so-called “power stroke, ‘’ a series of structural changes in the actomyosin cross-bridge driven by hydrolysis of ATP.

Detailed explanation-2: -Actin filaments, usually in association with myosin, are responsible for many types of cell movements. Myosin is the prototype of a molecular motor-a protein that converts chemical energy in the form of ATP to mechanical energy, thus generating force and movement.
