Solution

The correct option is D

(A)

1F

Troponin

Tropomyosin


A thin filament of myofibril contains 2 ‘F’ actins and two other proteins, namely troponin and tropomyosin. Tropomyosin and troponin regulate muscle contraction. Troponin binds to the calcium ions and removes the tropomyosin from the actin myosin-binding site, which allows the muscle contraction.

Thin filaments of myofibril contain one filament of actin and two filaments of troponin, along with tropomyosin protein.
So, the correct option is 'A - 1F B - troponin C - Tropomyosin'.
