Although all the anatomical parts of muscle work together to give it its characteristics, which of the following proteins listed below would be most associated with the characteristics of extensibility?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Elastic (titin) filaments are responsible for the extensibility of muscles. These filaments act as a spring-like structure, allowing the muscle to stretch and recoil without damage. Thick (myosin) filaments are responsible for muscle contraction, acetylcholine receptors in the motor end plate are responsible for muscle stimulation, and potassium (K+) leak channels are responsible for muscle membrane potential.
