Solution

The correct option is B

1.Z disc 2.A Band 3.M line 4.H zone 5.I band


Each sarcomere is limited by 2 Z discs.

The thick filaments produce the dark A band.

The thin filaments extend in each direction from the Z disk. Where they do not overlap the thick filaments, they create the light I band.

The H zone is that portion of the A band where the thick and thin filaments do not overlap.

The M line runs through the exact center of the sarcomere.
