Read the following statements and choose the correct option:
Statement I: During contraction of skeletal muscles, calcium binds with troponin so that myosin head binding sites on actin are exposed.
Statement II: The process of muscle contraction continues till sodium ions are pumped back to sarcoplasmic reticulum, resulting in masking of actin filaments which results in the return of Z-lines back to their original position.
