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.
Skeletal muscle cells (fibers), like other body cells, are soft and fragile. The connective tissue covering furnish support and protection for the delicate cells and allow them to withstand the forces of contraction. The coverings also provide pathways for the passage of blood vessels and nerves.n individual skeletal muscle may be made up of hundreds, or even thousands, of muscle fibers bundled together and wrapped in a connective tissue covering. Each muscle is surrounded by a connective tissue sheath called the epimysium. Fascia, connective tissue outside the epimysium, surrounds and separates the muscles.
