Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

A	Myosin filaments
B	Actin filaments
C	Troponin
D	Tropomyosin

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -The I bands contain only thin (actin) filaments, whereas the A bands contain thick (myosin) filaments. The myosin and actin filaments overlap in peripheral regions of the A band, whereas a middle region (called the H zone) contains only myosin.

Detailed explanation-2: -The H-zone and I-band consists of only myosin and actin, respectively. A-band contains both actin and myosin. M-line and Z-line are in the middle of thick and thin filaments, respectively.

Detailed explanation-3: -I bands (or isotropic bands): it is called the light band that contains only the thin filament (actin). The thin filament lies between the two thick filaments. Z disc: it is the area where two actin filaments connect and transverse the I bands.

Detailed explanation-4: -The H-zone consists of myosin only, the I-band consists of actin only and the A-band contains both actin and myosin.
