Muscle Sarcomere Contraction

Simple animation of sarcomere contraction (if animation is not playing, reload the page). Not all sarcomere structures can be seen in low power histology images without adjusting the microscope.

A band - (anisotropic bands, light 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.
