Solution

The correct option is A

1.Thin filament 2.Thick filament 3.Sarcomere


Thick and thin filaments are protein filaments which form cylindrical structures called myofibrils. Each myofibril is arranged in a pattern, which repeats throughout the length of the myofibril. This repeating pattern is called a sarcomere, which is the basic contractile unit of a muscle fibre.
