Each myosin filament comprises all the following,

except

(1) Each myosin filament is a polymerised protein, many monomeric proteins called meromyosins constitute one thick filament

(2) Actin binding sites and ATP binding sites are present on the cross-arm which is part of HMM

(3) Myosin tail is composed of LMM which binds to tropomyosin

(4) The globular head of myosin is an active ATPase enzyme

Choose the correct statement.

1. In a resting muscle fibre, a subunit of troponin masks the active binding sites on myosin for actin filaments

2. The myosin monomer called meromyosin has a globular head which has binding sites for ATP and active sites for actin

3. A motor neuron along with the muscle fibres connected to it constitute motor-end plate

4. The Z-lines attached to A-bands are pulled inwards towards the H-zone causing shortening of sarcomere
