Description
Transmission electron micrograph of ventricle tissue of a mouse cardiac muscle. This image shows the various areas of a muscle fiber. The Z lines are the very dark borders that link sarcomeres. The area between the Z lines is further divided into two lighter colored bands at either end called the I-bands, and a darker, grayish band in the middle called the A-band. The A band appears darker than the I band. The H zone is the bright region in the A band where there is no overlapping actin and myosin when the muscle is in the relaxed state. There are also many darkly stained mitochondria in this image.
