The extra ocular muscles of the eye contain this type of myosin ATPase.
a) slow b) fast c) kinda-fast d) super-fast e) none of the above
Answer- d. Super-fast
Explanation- Extra ocular muscles are the muscles which cause the movement of the eyeball ( except levator palpebrae muscle which elevates the upper eyelid).Eye movements need to be precise and fast as one needs to change gaze quickly. Levator palpebrae is the fastest muscle. For making this possible, the muscle fibres in these muscles are densely supplied with axons and blood vessels. Also,they contain superfast type of myosin ATPase.
