Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Twitchin is a unique protein found in mollusc catch muscles that has been shown to contribute to their ability to generate tension for long periods of time without using much energy. While both myosin and titin are important proteins in muscle function, they do not have the same specific role in mollusc catch muscles as twitchin does. Therefore, option D (all of the above) is not the best choice.
