The zone of overlap is the point where actin myofilaments overlay the myosin myofilaments as it (actin) gets pulled towards the m-line (mid-point of sarcomere). The zone of overlap increases during muscle contraction, resulting in the shortening of the muscle.

If an overlap develops between the ranges of two closely related species and if the species occupy the same niche in the zone of overlap what will probably happen in the zone of overlap?

Most commonly one species will push the other out of the overlap but under some circumstances their populations balance against each other and the will coexist. Some relationships are very stable with even population declines eventually rebounding to a particular point but in others a small shift in population sizes can lead to one species displacing the other.
