Question
**Quiz Question:**

**Question:**
____ can fit between actin filaments that have ____ crosslinkers, converting them to ____ bundles.

**Options:**
1. Myosin II, long, contractile
2. Myosin I, long, contractile
3. Myosin I, short, non-contractile
4. Myosin II, short, non-contractile (Correct Answer: Myosin I, long, contractile)

**Explanation:**
This multiple-choice question is designed to test the understanding of the interaction between myosin proteins and actin filaments. The blank spaces need to be filled with terms that correctly complete the sentence. Selecting the incorrect options would demonstrate a misunderstanding of the interaction and structure of these proteins and filaments.

**Detailed Breakdown:**
- **Myosin II**: Often found in muscle cells, involved in muscle contraction.
- **Myosin I**: Typically involved in processes like motility and intracellular transport.
- **Long crosslinkers**: Refers to proteins or molecules that span a longer distance between actin filaments.
- **Short crosslinkers**: Refers to proteins or molecules that span a shorter distance between actin filaments.
- **Contractile bundles**: Bundle of actin filaments able to contract or generate movement.
- **Non-contractile bundles**: Bundle of actin filaments that do not contract.

**Correct Response:**
- Myosin I can fit between actin filaments that have long crosslinkers, converting them to contractile bundles.

This is the most appropriate answer based on the functions and characteristics of Myosin I.
