Really? I thought troponin played a bigger role in that.

Wait, isn't it the sarcomere that has the cross-bridges?

I keep mixing up troponin and myosin. I know troponin regulates contraction, but does it have cross-bridges too?

I practiced a question like this before, and I think it was myosin that had the most cross-bridges. It makes sense with how muscle contraction works.

I’m not entirely sure, but I remember something about sarcomeres being the functional units of muscle fibers. Could they be involved?

I think the answer might be myosin because it’s known for forming cross-bridges during muscle contraction, right?

Myosin is the muscle protein that has the cross-bridges, so I'm going to go with D.
