Schematic diagram of two (1) uniform (in length) sarcomeres (lower) and (2) non-uniform (in length) sarcomeres (upper) on the descending limb of the force-length relationship. These two sarcomeres are stabilized because they have the same force-generating capability for both conditions. Note that even though the sum of the length of sarcomeres A and B is identical between the two conditions, the force produced by these conditions is different.
