Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Z-line is a structure formed between adjacent sarcomeres and is found at each end of the sarcomere in striated muscle and defines the lateral boundaries of the sarcomere, its function is to give anchorage to titin and to the outer ends of the thin filaments.  Due to this anchoring function, the Z-lines are responsible for force of transmission and during contraction, as the sarcomere shortens, the distance between Z lines lessens
