<h3>When the myosin pulls the actin what is happening?</h3>

The actin is drawn along by the myosin head as it advances in the direction of the M line. The filaments migrate nearer the M line by around 10 nm as the actin is tugged. The power stroke is the name given to this motion because it is where force is generated.
