Sarcomere
The sarcomere is the smallest contractile unit of muscle.

The smallest contractile unit of a muscle fiber is the sarcomere.It is composed of contractile myofilaments known as actin and myosin.

Sarcomeres are the tiny contractile units linked together on a myofibril. They are the functional units of muscle tissue and are responsible for muscle contractions. Sarcomeres consist of thick and thin filaments made of proteins that slide past each other during muscle contraction.
The smallest contractile unit of individual muscle fibers is called a sarcomere. Sarcomeres are made up of overlapping thick and thin filaments that slide past each other during muscle contraction, generating the force necessary for movement.
The contractile units of skeletal muscles are called sarcomeres. Sarcomeres consist of actin and myosin filaments that slide past each other during muscle contraction, causing the muscle to shorten and generate force.
No, muscle tissue contains contractile units made of actin and myosin proteins, which are responsible for muscle contraction. Collagen is a structural protein found in connective tissues like tendons and ligaments, but it is not directly involved in muscle contraction.
A muscle fiber is made of many contractile units called sarcomeres.
The non-contractile element are skeletal muscles that don't contract such as Epimysium,Perimysium and, Endomysium. Contractile muscle contract as a whole muscle instead of single bundles of muscle fibers
