Explain two key concepts of the sarcomere length-tension relationship.
A) (1) The greater the zone of overlap,the greater the tension the muscle can develop; and (2) there is an optimum range of actin and myosin overlap that will produce the greatest amount of tension.
B) (1) The smaller the zone of overlap,the greater the tension the muscle can develop; and (2) there is an optimum range of actin and myosin overlap that will produce the greatest amount of tension.
C) (1) The greater the zone of overlap,the less tension the muscle can develop; and (2) there is an optimum range of actin and myosin overlap that will produce the greatest amount of tension.
D) (1) The greater the zone of overlap,the greater the tension the muscle can develop; and (2) there is an optimum calcium concentration that will produce the greatest amount of tension.
E) (1) The smaller the zone of overlap,the greater the tension the muscle can develop; and (2) there is an optimum calcium concentration that will produce the greatest amount of tension.
