The region of the sarcomere that contains only thin filaments is known as the I band. The "I" stands for isotropic. The band is an area of only thin filaments, which doesn't have any thick filaments - also known as myosin - superimposed.

Which about sarcomere shortening is FALSE? The thick and thin filaments slide past each other. The length of the A band remains constant. The length of the I band remains constant. The H zone almost disappears.
