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.

Schizocoelic development

The coelom is a fluid-filled body cavity, where the internal organs are suspended in. It is the cavity between the wall of the body and the digestive tract.

In the schizocoelic development of the embryo, the coelom, called the schizocoel, develops as a split in the mesoderm. The outer layer of the mesoderm attaches with the ectoderm to form a body's musculature, while the inner layer attaches with the endoderm to form the wall of the digestive tract. 

This type of development is commonly found in annelids, arthropods, and mollusks.

Why are estuaries such rich habitats for organisms
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Estuaries are areas where fresh water from rivers meets salt water. As the river drains, it carries much nutrient-rich sediment. Many animal species depend on this food source to provide for their young.
