Dr.Bendersky has published a new book which discusses anti-Semitism, entitled The Jewish Threat - anti-Semitic Politics of the U.S. Army (Basic Books, N.Y., 2000). The book is so provocative that it will stimulate great discussion.
Muscle cells have three coverings. The endomysium covers each individual muscle cell. The perimysium is a connective tissue sheath that covers small bundles of muscle cells known as fascicles. The fascicles make up larger muscle bundles that are then covered by a connective tissue sheath known as the perimysium.
Each myosin thick filament is surrounded by actin thin filaments, and each thin filament is surrounded by thick filaments. Several of these filament bundles make up the functional portion of a muscle cell. It is also important to note that the thin filaments are attached to a very dense protein plate called a Z disc.
