What is A Actin?
A
A microfilament have twisted double chain of actin subunits.
B
A actin subunits.
C
I don’t know.
D
Doesn’t have a double chain.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Actin filaments (F-actin) are linear polymers of globular actin (G-actin) subunits and occur as microfilaments in the cytoskeleton and as thin filaments, which are part of the contractile apparatus, in muscle and nonmuscle cells (see contractile bundles).

Detailed explanation-2: -Actin is the structural protein of microfilaments, and it usually exists in two forms: monomer and polymer. Among them, monomer actin is a spherical molecule composed of a polypeptide chain, also known as spherical actin. The function of actin polymers is to produce actin filaments, so it is also called fibroactin.
