bridge in the center of the sarcomere (the center of

the H-zone). Actin filaments are aligned at both ends

of the sarcomere and are anchored at the Z-line.
Z-lines are repeated through the entire myofibril.
Six actin filaments surround each myosin filament,
and each actin filament is surrounded by three
myosin filaments.
It is the arrangement of the myosin and actin filaments and the Z-lines of the
sarcomeres that gives
skeletal muscle its alternating dark and light patternits striated appearance
under magnification.
The dark A-band corresponds with the alignment of
the myosin filaments, whereas the light I-band
