Answer:

The correct answer would be "Myosin heads attach to sites on actin filaments".

The muscle cell or myofibril consists of two types of protein filaments namely; actin (thin filament) and myosin (thick filament).

The myosin heads attach to the binding sites on the actin filaments and pull it towards the M-line in order to produce contraction.

The hydrolysis of ATP provides energy for this contraction cycle.

Answer:

A phospholipid

a. has both polar and nonpolar regions.

Explanation:

Phospholipids, as amphipathic molecules, consist of a glycerol molecule, two fatty acids, and a phosphate group that is modified by an alcohol.  The phosphate group is the negatively-charged hydrophilic (water-loving) polar head, which face outward and are attracted to the intracellular and extracellular fluid.  The fatty acids are the uncharged, hydrophobic (water-fearing) nonpolar tails, which face the inside, away from the water and meet in the inner region of the membrane.
