No, smooth muscle is poorly organized and do not have the Z lines which are characteristic of sarcomeres.
Yes, the Z line shortens during muscle contraction.
The Z-disk, also known as the Z line, is a structure in skeletal muscle that separates one sarcomere (the basic contractile unit of muscle) from the next. It serves as an anchor for actin filaments and helps to transmit force generated during muscle contraction. The Z-disk also plays a role in maintaining the alignment of myofibrils within the muscle cell.
Z discs, or Z lines, are structures found in striated muscle fibers, such as skeletal and cardiac muscle. They mark the boundaries of a sarcomere, the basic contractile unit of muscle tissue, and serve as the anchoring point for thin filaments (actin). During muscle contraction, the Z discs move closer together as the sarcomeres shorten, facilitating muscle movement. Z discs also play a role in maintaining the structural integrity of the muscle fiber.
During muscle contraction, the Z line moves closer together, causing the muscle to shorten and generate force.
