Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): During muscle contraction, ATP has a significant role to play 
Reason (R): Energy released by hydrolysis of ATP is used by myosin to facilitate the formation of actomyosin cross bridge
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true but (R) is false.
4. Both (A) and (R) are false.
