How do actin filaments appear when viewed by negative stain electron microscopy?

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
  1. When viewed by negative stain electron microscopy, an actin filament appears as a twisted string of beads with a diameter of 7-9 nm.

  2. When viewed by negative stain electron microscopy, an actin filament appears as a straight string of beads with a diameter of 7-9 nm.

  3. When viewed by negative stain electron microscopy, an actin filament appears as a protofilamentous form with a diameter of 7-9 nm.

  4. When viewed by negative stain electron microscopy, an actin filament appears as a twisted string of beads with a diameter of 25 nm.
