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.
Why do bony fish have many gill filaments?
Bony fish have many gill filaments because they use them to breathe. They are also used to transfer things like water and ions.
Through which organ do fish get oxygen?
Those would be the gills. which are composed of many filaments. Gill filaments have rows of thin, vertical lamellae with many capillaries covered by a single layer of cells. Gills are really thin.
What structures anchor thin filaments?

Myofibrils are composed primarily of two protein filaments called?

What best describes the term Z line?
Thin filaments are anchored here
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.
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.
The thick filaments of muscle fibers are composed of what?
Myosin
What is H zone?
Thin filaments
What is the function of the gill filaments?
