No, Isotropic bands are not elongated during Muscle Contraction.

Explanation:

  • Myosin or thick filament and actin or thin filament are the two protein components of the muscles which aids in its contraction process.
  • The isotropic bands are formed, when the sarcomeres ( the basic functional units), get stacked on each other throughout the tissues of muscles.
  • This tissue changes in the length and thus, the muscle cells are elongated and not the isotropic bands.
  • The contraction process takes place as these thick and thin filaments slide over each other.
  • Due to this, the biochemical changes occur and the impulse is being sent through the motor nerve to neuro muscular junction through the release of Acetylcholine.
