Answer: c. The myosin would not be able to let go of the actin
Explanation:
Muscles consists of two proteins called actin and myosin and responsible for muscle contraction.
Myosin is ATP dependant and when ATP binds to it, it is able to release the actin.
This will allow the actin and myosin to seperate from each other thus leading to muscle contraction
The variety of all life forms on Earth.
Plants and fungi both have cell walls, which provide them with support and structure. But one main difference is that plants, unlike fungi, have the ability to photosynthesize.
A sacromere is a segment between two adjacent Z discs and are essential for the striated structure of the cardiac and skeletal muscles.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The Z disc is surrounded by the I band made of thin filament called actin. The I band is followed by the A band made up of thick filament called myosin. When the muscles contract the actin and the myosin become superimposed/overlapped.
The sliding filament model explains the contraction of the sacromere in which the Z discs move closer due to the overlapping of the thin and thick filaments. Thus the I band moves close to the A band which remain the same length as shown in figure.
