Answer:

Contraction is prevented

Step-by-step explanation:

The sarcomere is the basic contratile unit of muscle i.e the unit responsible for contraction in the muscle and it consist of two main protein actin; which forms filaments involved in contraction and myosin; a motor protein responsible for contraction. Calcium interacts with these protein and in the absence of Ca, contraction is inhibited (sacromere with not be able to undergo contraction)
