Solution

The correct option is C myosin
The myosin filament has meromyicin and it has two important parts, a globular head and a tail. The globular head has the site for ATPase enzyme and has binding sites for ATP and active sites for actin.
This helps in the attachment of actin filament during the sliding motion.
So, the correct option is 'myosin'
