the A band stays the same length because it is the length of the myosin filaments, and all the myosin does it sit there while actin slides past it.

Does anyone have all their toes the same length?
I am not sure, but in Buddhist tradition, one of the 23 marks of a great man was that he should have toes of the same length. This supposedly meant that the legs were very strong. But I doubt it though. Even the strongest runners who have really fit legs don't have toes of the same length.. So, yeah, just FYI.

Is Sarcomere and sarcolemma the same thing?
sarcomere and sarcolemma are two different things. a sarcomere is between two d zisks of a myofiber (muscle fiber). a sarcolemma is a plasma membrane. there are many sections of sarcomere under the layer of sarcolemma.
Which can shorten during a muscle contraction?
None actually shorten. The thin and thick filaments that compose sarcomeres do not shorten; instead, they slide past one another, causing the sarcomere to shorten while the filaments remain the same length.

When thick and thin filaments slide past each other does the fiber lengthen?
Muscles contract when sarcomeres shorten. The thin and thick filaments that compose sarcomeres do not shorten; instead, they slide past one another, causing the sarcomere to shorten while the filaments remain the same length.

How does the tilt of Earth's axis the number of daylight hours and the temperature of a location on Earth?
If the Earth's axis was vertical - every point on its surface would have the same length of day and night, no matter what time of year it was. The tilt of the axis (to about 11 degrees) means that, as the Earth rotates, and travels around the sun, the length of day shortens and lengthens throughout the year.

Why are guitar strings farther apart at the body of the guitar?
They aren't. You might be talking about the frets, which has to do with the physics of a vibrating string. Cutting a string in half increases the pitch one octave, so you need to shorten the length of the string less as the string shortens to get the same change in pitch.
