Statements A-bands of the muscle are dark and contain myosin I-band are the light bands and contain actin During muscle contraction the A-band contracts The part between the two Z-lines is called as sarcomere The central part of thin filament, not over-lapped by thick filament is called H-zone of the above statements.

Read the following statements and select the correct option : I. In the skeletal muscles fibre, large number of myofilaments are arranged in the sarcoplasmic . II. The central part of an anisotropic band where the only thick , filament is present and thin filament is absent is called 'A' band. III. In the resting state , a tropomyosin protein masks the active b binding sites for myosin on the active filaments . IV. The junction between a motor neuron and the sarcolemma of the muscle fibres is called motor-end plate.
