#### Question

There is a His residue labeled on the myoglobin structure below. What is that His residue commonly called?

#### Image Explanation

The image depicts a 3D model of myoglobin structure, highlighting specific components:

- **Bound O₂ (oxygen):** Indicated in red, showing its position in relation to the heme group.
- **F helix:** Marked in green, suggesting its connection with the histidine residue.
- **His bound to heme iron:** Labeled in green, the histidine residue directly connected to the iron within the heme group.

#### Answer Choices

- ○ the conserved His residue.
- ○ the hydrophobic His residue.
- ○ the distal His residue.
- ○ the proximal His residue.
- ○ None of the above is correct.
