Total Tension in a Muscle Is Dependent on the Tension

Total tension in a muscle is dependent on the tension length characteristics of both the active and passive components of muscle. Which of the following statements regarding active tension in a muscle are correct?

A) Active tension developed in a skeletal muscle is proportional to the total number of cross-bridges in parallel.
B) Active tension is at its maximum at resting length.
C) As the muscle lengthens past resting length active tension begins to build in the connective tissue.
D) As the muscle continues to lengthen there is an increase in the active tension as well as an increase in the rate of development of active tension.
