Answer:

The sarcomere is split into the H-zone, A-band, I-band, M-line, Z-line. The H-zone consists of myosin only. The I-band consists of actin only and the A-band contains both actin and myosin. The M-line holds together the thick myosin filaments. The Z-line differentiates between each sarcomere.
