A rare mutation has caused unusually long myosin laments in a muscle. If myosin lament lengths are twice that of the wild-type muscle and all other aspects of the muscle are normal, calculate the sarcomere length at which isometric force will be zero as the thin and thick laments no longer have any overlap. State all of your assumptions and show your work.

The pharynx is the structure in the body that serves as a pathway of both air and food. how does the body make sure that food does not get into the lungs? the salivary glands secrete enzymes that pull food out of the air pathway. the small intestine pushes the air out of the digestive system. the pancreas breaks down food in the air pathway. the epiglottis closes the air pathway so that food will not enter it.
