If a myofibril were pulled so that the sarcomeres increased in length by approximately 50 percent, what effect would you expect this to have on the contractile ability of the myofibril? Why? What effects would this have on the H, A, and I bands?
Myosin II action (Figure 9.61) differs from that of kinesin (Figure 9.15) in that one of the kinesin heads is always in contact with a microtubule, whereas both myosin heads become completely detached from the actin filament. How are these differences correlated with the two types of motor activities in which these proteins engage?
