Tendon also have a role in the tensile properties of tendon. The structure of tendon is effectively a fibre composite material, built as a series of hierarchical levels. At each level of the hierarchy, the collagen units are bound together by either collagen crosslinks, or the proteoglycans, to create a structure highly resistant to tensile load. The elongation and the strain of the collagen fibrils alone have been shown to be much lower than the total elongation and strain of the entire tendon under the same amount of stress, demonstrating that the proteoglycan-rich matrix must also undergo deformation, and stiffening of
What Strong Fences Make What Strong Fences Make What Strong Fences Make is a 2009 play by Israel Horovitz. Horovitz told an interviewer that he wrote "What Strong Fences Make" because "another voice needed to be heard" in the wake of Caryl Churchill's play "Seven Jewish Children", which he argues "offensive, distorted and manipulative".
