What happens to z line disc during contraction?
it comes closer and m line becomes dense
The distance between Z-discs during muscle contraction?
Decreases
Do the you band and H zones become narrower during contraction?
Yes the H band shortens. During contraction the length of the sarcomere or from z line to z line must decrease in length. Thus the I band which is bisected by the z line must shorten as well as the H band, even though the H band is bisected by the A band it must shorten to allow fior this decrease in length. The A band does not shorten because it is composed of the entire length of myosin whose length never decreases during contraction.
The basic unit of muscle contraction is the sarcomere which is?
the distance from one Z line to the next
Does the distance between z-disc decrease during muscle contraction?
Decreases
In the skeletal muscle what is a Z-disk or Z line?
Z-disks or Z-lines are the points of contraction for contractile proteins. They provide structural support for the transmission of force when the muscle fibers are activated to shorten.
What would a z have for a line of symmentry?
z does not have a line of symmetry. z does not have a line of symmetry. z does not have a line of symmetry. z does not have a line of symmetry.
Where can one travel on the Z line?
The Z Line of the New York subway used to be called the Jamaica Express in Lower Manhattan. The Z Line runs during rush hour only. The Z line goes from Broad Street all the way to Jamaica Center and it makes stops along the way.
What line of symmetry is z?
To determine the line of symmetry of shape Z, you would need a visual representation of Z. Without that information, it is not possible to determine the line of symmetry.
What happens if you press z during the GameCube intro?
the sounds will be different it will sound like kids laughing
What is irregular z line in esophagus?
Irregular Z line is the connection where the oesaphagus meets the stomach. when the endoscopist means Irregular Z line- They take a sample tissue and send it for biposy. Irregular Z line does not mean that something is wrong.
The segment of a myofibril that is called a sarcomere runs from?
One Z line to the next Z line
