Structure of myosin & actin filaments.
i. Myosin filament: a. Each myosin filament is a polymerized protein. Many meromyosins (monomeric proteins) i constitute one thick filament. b. Myosin molecule consists of two heavy chains (heavy meromyosin / HMM) coiled around each other forming a double helix. One end of each of these chains is projected outwardly is known as cross bridge . This end folds to form a globular protein mass called myosin head . c. Two light chains are associated with each head forming 4 light chains/light meromyosin / LMM. d. Myosin head has a special ATPase activity . It can split ATP to produce energy. e. Myosin contributes 55% of muscle proteins. f. In sarcomere, myosin tails are arranged to point towards the centre of the sarcomere and the heads point to the sides of the myofilament band. ii. Actin filament : It is a complex type of contractile protein. It is made up of three components: a. F actin : It forms the backbone of actin filament. F actin is made up of two helica

Table of content: 1. Plants 2. Animals 3. Humans 4. Gods Plant Plants are the eukaryotes that form the kingdom Plantae ; they are predominantly photosynthetic . This means that they obtain their energy from sunlight , using chloroplasts derived from endosymbiosis with cyanobacteria to produce sugars from carbon dioxide and water, using the green pigment chlorophyll . Exceptions are parasitic plants that have lost the genes for chlorophyll and photosynthesis, and obtain their energy from other plants or fungi. Animal Historically, as in Aristotle's biology , the plant kingdom encompassed all living things that were not animals , and included algae and fungi . Definitions have narrowed since then; current definitions exclude the fungi and some of the algae. By the definition used in this article, plants form the clade Viridiplantae (green plants), which consists of the green algae and the embryophytes or land plants ( hornworts ,
