Answer:

The correct answer will be option A - A-band.

Explanation:

The sarcomere is the repeating unit of a myofibril which extends between two z-lines. Under a microscope, a sarcomere can be divided into A- band which is composed of thick myosin only and I-band which consists of thin filament that is actin only.

When a muscle contract then actin and myosin comes in overlapping position due to which I-band shortens and between two z-lines and overlapped structure of thin actin filaments over thick myosin filaments (A-band) is seen.  

Therefore, only A-band is seen between two z-lines in a contracted muscle thus, option A is the correct answer.

How are modern people using earth for their benefit?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Modern people are using the Earth for many things like farming, technology, art, and more.

Explanation:

Farming is a form of agriculture, people who farm can make money off of selling their crops, and they can also feed themselves.

Technology is a mix of mathematics, science, and the arts. Without technology, phones, laptops, cars, and other electronics would not exist right now. We need cars for transportation to get from Point A to Point B, and we use our phones and laptops for communication and entertainment.

Art is the form of human activities in creating visual, auditory or performing artifacts. Without art, life wouldn't be very pleasurable. People want to express themselves, and people want to see beauty. Art also helps historians tell about the past.

Hope this helped!
