OF THE MUSCLES—MYOI OGY j. he mu3cies are the moving organs of the body, They are composed of parallel fibres, of a deep red color, constituting lean fibres are held together by a delicate web of areolar tissue,which becomes condensed and so modified toward the extremities ofthe muscles as to form glistening fibres and cords, called tendons, bywhich they are attached to the surface of the bones. The greater portion of the bulk of the body is composed of m„icu-far tissue. In the limbs the muscles invest and protect the bones andsome of the joints. In the trunk they are spread out to enclose cavi-ties, and form a defensive wall, capable of yielding to external press-ure and again returning to it3 original position. The tendons of broadmuscles are often spread out, forming expansions called aponeuroses. MYOLOGY. The names of muscles aie generally de- Fig- *!• •ived from some prominent c
