Answer:
Each myosin filament is made of monomers of protein called meromyosin. Each meromyosin has two regions - heavy meromyosin (HMM), which is a globular head with a short arm, and light meromyosin (LMM), which is the tail. The globular head acts as an active ATPase, and it also has the binding site for actin.

⭐ Many monomeric proteins called meromyosin.
⭐ It has two parts i. e Heavy meromyosin and Light meromyosin.
⭐ Globular head with short arm and a tail.
⭐ The HMM i. e the head and short arm projects outwards at regular distance.
⭐ The Globular head is an active ATPase enzyme and has binding sites for ATP and active sites for actin.
