Answer:

Calcium is then pumped back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum breaking the link between actin and myosin.

Step-by-step explanation:

Actin and myosin return to their unbound state causing the muscle to relax. Alternatively relaxation (failure) will also occur when ATP is no longer available.
