During contraction, myosin heads bind to actin molecules of the. thin filaments. Flexing of the myosin heads pulls the thin filaments over the thick. filaments - shortening the sarcomere. Muscle contraction requires.

The term contraction often means to shorten; however, during a muscle contraction the tension may cause muscles to stay the same, get longer or become shorter.
