The myosin myofilament can be cleaved into a head and a tail piece. All of the following are accurate in describing the position of myosin in a sacromere except (i) A-band is the length of a myosin myoilaments (ii) A-band contains thin and thick myofilaments (iii) A-band does not include actin-binding sites

In resting stage, binding sites for myosin on actin filaments are masked by

Which of these statements about the molecular structure of myofilaments is ture?

[A] : Each myosin filament is composed of about 500 thread iike myosin molecules. [R]: Actin combines with myosin to form a contractiie complex.

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

Read the following statements (i) In cardiac muscle fibres sacroplasmic reticulum is poorly formed (ii)B Blood supply is scanty in case of smooth muscle fibres (iii) Tropomyosin occurs in actin filaments in the form of complexes which are arranged over actin fibres and represent sites where myosin binds to actin. (iv) Salts of citrate and oxalates act as anticoagulants as they precipitate Ca^(2+) Select the correct statements

[A] : Upon stimulation of a muscle cell, cal- cium ions (Ca^(++)) are released from the sar- coplasmic reticulum. [R]: In reacting with a protein complex, Ca^(++) unmasks myosin binding sites on the ac-tin filaments.
