I believe the muscle doesn't change length because the force generated is equal to the force opposing it.

I agree with Kristofer, during isometric tension development, the muscle stays the same length.

Isometric tension, that's when the muscle stays the same length, right? I'll go with C on this one.

Hmm, this one's tricky. I'd say the muscle doesn't change length during isometric tension, so I'm going with C.
