The sarcoplasm is delimiteil at the right bj' a stout fibril which simulates a membrane, but a faint segmentation reveals its true myofibril nature. Fig. 6 fusiform connective tissue cell of the endomysium from the same preparation. Fig. 7 Isolatcfl large fusiform smooth muscle cell from cat's intestine. The nucleus is surrounded by coarsely granular sarcoplasm as in cardiac muscle, which is continuf)Us similarly with the more peripheral non-granular or finely granular sarcoi)lasm, though myofibrils may simulate, as in heart muscle, a cell membrane. X 1500; reduced one-half in reproduction. Fig. 8 Oblique transverse section of smooth muscle cell from nuiscularis mucosae of esophagus of cat. The perinuclear sarcoplasm has contracted away from the nucleus leaving a clear space, peripherally limited by a sharp line, a fixation artefact, simulating a cell membrane. The light-blue-staining sarco- plasm however is peripheral to this 'membrane' Zenker's fixation; hematoxylin- eosin stain. X 1500. 42S.
