Solution

The correct option is D Central part of I-band M-line
After going through the given diagram, the following conclusions can be made :
  1. The sarcomere is the portion between two Z lines and is the functional unit of contraction.
  2. The actin filaments form the isotropic band due to their refractive index.
  3. The myosin filaments form the anisotropic band due to the refractive index in presence of light.
  4. The central part of I band is Z line and not the M line. It is the incorrect option.
  5. The central part of A band is H zone, which is not overlapped by the actin filaments.
So, the correct option is 'Central part of I-band → M-line'.
