In skeletal muscle fibers, the sarcomere is the fundamental contractile unit. Each sarcomere is made up of thick and thin filaments. The thick filaments are primarily composed of myosin, while the thin filaments are made of actin. The thick filaments are centrally located and contribute to the formation of the H zone and are anchored at the M line in the center of the sarcomere. In contrast, thin filaments extend from the Z discs, which define the boundary of each sarcomere. According to the passage, which of the following statements about myosin myofilaments is NOT true?

During a neuromuscular lab experiment, a subject’s biceps brachii muscle is stimulated electrically at increasing frequencies. Initially, isolated twitches are observed. As the frequency increases, the twitches begin to summate, and partial relaxation between contractions becomes shorter. Eventually, the electrical stimuli become so rapid that no relaxation is observed at all between contractions. The muscle enters a state of sustained contraction with no visible fluctuation in force output. Question: Which of the following best describes the muscle contraction observed when no relaxation occurs between stimuli and the muscle remains in a continuous, forceful contraction?
