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

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
