Actin and myosin belong to which group of biological molecules?
A
Proteins
B
Carbohydrates
C
Lipids
D
Nucleic Acid
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Individual actin molecules are globular proteins of 375 amino acids (43 kd). Each actin monomer (globular [G] actin) has tight binding sites that mediate head-to-tail interactions with two other actin monomers, so actin monomers polymerize to form filaments (filamentous [F] actin) (Figure 11.2).
