Fig. 69. of over 500 [i and a breadth of 20 Occasional cells with bi-furcated ends are encountered, especially among the lower verte-brates. The spindle muscle-cell is invested with a very delicate, homo-geneous, hyaline sheath, closely resembling elastic tissue, andcorresponding to the sarcolemma of the striated fibre; within thisenvelope lies the soft, semi-fluid, contractile protoplasm, embeddedin which, near the centre of the cell, lies a characteristic, narrow,rod-shaped nucleus. Delicate longitudinal fibrillae sometimes canbe made out extending the entire length of
