What structures help to anchor the thick and thin filaments in place?
Z-discs and Titin.
What are the roles of thick and thin filaments in muscle contraction?
The thin filaments are actin, and the thick filaments are myosin. The filaments run parrel to one another along the length of the sarcomere.The dark bands that occur in the middle of the sarcomere are regions where the thick filaments and thin filaments overlap.
Are there more thick filaments than thin filaments in smooth muscle?
There more thin filaments than thick filaments in smooth muscle. The ratio is of the thin to thick filaments in the smooth muscle is approximately 15:1.
What are thin rod like structures that anchor mosses?
bcuz theydont kno how to live and then let it happen
What is the function of a rhizoid?
Rhizoids are thin, rootlike structures that anchor the moss and help absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
Myofibrils are composed primarily of two protein filaments called?
thick filaments and thin filaments
What best describes the term Z line?
Thin filaments are anchored here
What is the function of a mosses Rhizoid?
Rhizoids are thin, rootlike structures that anchor the moss and help absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
What is the function of a mosss rhizoid?
Rhizoids are thin, rootlike structures that anchor the moss and help absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
Which of the following become connected by myosin cross-bridges during muscle contraction A) thin filaments and thick filaments B) thin filaments and t-tubules C) thick filaments and titin filame?
Interactions between actin and myosin filaments of the sarcomere are responsible for muscle contractions. The I bands contain only thin (actin) filaments, whereas the A bands contain thick (myosin) filaments.
What is the rootlike filament that anchor the mushroom in the soil?
Mycelial threads are the filaments that anchor the mushroom in the soil. They are colorless.
The thick filaments of muscle fibers are composed of what?
Myosin
