The interaction between actin and myosin filaments in muscle cells shortens the sarcomere during a contraction. Calcium ions released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum trigger this interaction, leading to the sliding of actin filaments over myosin filaments and shortening of the muscle fiber.

What is a concentric contraction?
concentric contraction is atype of muscle contraction which the muscle shortens while genrating aforce The muscle shortens to produce movement. A muscle contraction in which shortening occurs.
What band shortens during skeletal muscle contraction?
during skeletal muscle contraction ,I band and H zone shortens. Sarcomeres
What contraction that shortens the muscle but does not increase tension is called?
It is called concentric isotonic contraction.
In an isotonic contraction the muscle?
shortens while maintaining constant tension.
Which region of a sarcomere shortens during contraction?
During a contraction, the I bands and H zone of a sarcomere contract. The A bands remain unchanged.
Is it true The more a muscle shortens during a contraction then the greater the power of the muscle?
No it is not true.
When a muscle shortens it means what?
It is called a concentric contraction. The muscle gets shorter in preparation to do work.
Which region of the sarcomere shortens during contraction the dark band the light band or both?
Dark
What does contraction mean in medical terms?
contract or "contraction" is when a muscle fiber lengthens or shortens
What is a contraction for words?
Grammatically, a contraction combines two words (or shortens one word) by replacing one or more letters with an apostrophe. Examples are don't (do not), he's (he is) and would've (would have).
