Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Myofibrils are composed mostly of
A
tropnin
B
tropomyosin
C
actin and myosin
D
ADP and ATP
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The myofibrils are made up of thick and thin myofilaments, which help give the muscle its striped appearance. The thick filaments are composed of myosin, and the thin filaments are predominantly actin, along with two other muscle proteins, tropomyosin and troponin.

Detailed explanation-2: -The myofibrils are made up of thick and thin myofilaments, which give the muscle its striped appearance. The thick filaments are composed strands of the protein myosin, and the thin filaments are strands of the protein actin, along with two other muscle regulatory proteins, tropomyosin and troponin.

Detailed explanation-3: -A sarcomere is the basic contractile unit of muscle fiber. Each sarcomere is composed of two main protein filaments-actin and myosin-which are the active structures responsible for muscular contraction.

Detailed explanation-4: -A myofibril is a component of the animal skeletal muscle. Myofibrils are long filaments that run parallel to each other to form muscle (myo) fibers. The myofibrils, and resulting myofibers, may be several centimeters in length. The muscle fibers are single multinucleated cells that combine to form the muscle.

Detailed explanation-5: -The myofibrils are bundles of interconnected protein filaments of striated muscles. The filaments (myofilaments) included in the myofibrils are mainly thick filaments (myosin), and thin filaments (actin).
