A: | Muscle bundles are held together by collagenous connective tissue layer called fascicle. |
B: | Sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle fibre is a store house of calcium ions. |
C: | Striated appearance of skeletal muscle fibre is due to distribution pattern of actin and myosin proteins. |
D: | M line is considered as functional unit of contraction called sarcomere. |
1. | C and D only | 2. | A, B and C only |
3. | B and C only | 4. | A, C and D only |
Unit of contraction in a muscle fiber is:
1. Sarcomere
2. Muscle fiber
3. Actin
4. None
What is a sarcomere:
1. Part between two H-line
2. Part between two A-line
3. Part between two I-band
4. Part between two Z-line
Match the following columns.

The H-zone in the skeletal muscle fibre is due to:
1. | The central gap between myosin filaments in the A-band. |
2. | The central gap between actin filaments extends through myosin filaments in the A-band. |
3. | Extension of myosin filaments in the central portion of the A-band |
4. | The absence of myofibrils in the central portion of the A-band. |
