Question
which of the following series correctly describes the organization of muscle tissue from smallest to largest component? myofibrils to sarcomeres to muscle fibers sarcomeres to myofibrils to muscle fibers muscle fibers to myofibrils to sarcomeres muscle fibers to sarcomeres to myofibrils
Sarcomeres are the basic contractile units of muscle. Myofibrils are made up of many sarcomeres. Muscle fibers (muscle cells) contain numerous myofibrils. So the order from smallest to largest is sarcomeres (smallest structural unit for contraction) → myofibrils (bundles of sarcomeres) → muscle fibers (cells containing myofibrils).
