Sarcomere components
- A band - (anisotropic bands, dark band) are composed of the thick myosin filaments.
- I band - (isotropic bands, light band) are composed of thin actin filaments.
- H band - (German, heller =brighter). are composed of the thick filaments that is not overlapped (superimposed) by the thin filaments.
- Z line - (German, Zwischenscheibe = Intermediate plate) appears as a series of dark lines between the I bands, indicate the end of one sarcomere and the beginning of the next.
