Muscle insertion #1

Open giuseb opened 1 year ago

giuseb commented 1 year ago

A few problems with this slide's side notes.

  1. since the text describes muscle insertions directly into the periosteum, why is the title "Muscle Tendon Insertion"?
  2. isn't the periosteum a type of irregular connective tissue?
  3. the endomysium surrounds (note the third person) each muscle cell, not the muscle as a whole
  4. the last sentence is ambiguous because the term "fibers" could refer to collagen fibers in the endomysium but also to muscle fibers (i.e. cells)

  1. This title is wrong. No idea why “Muscle Tendon Insertion” was used instead of “Muscle Insertion.”
  2. The periosteum is dense, irregular connective tissue.
  3. This is awkwardly written. It may have been a simple editing error, and “cell” was omitted from the end of the sentence.
  4. The ambiguity has been removed. The description has been rewritten with these fixes.
