T W O TEXT F'IGURSS AND THREE PLATES (!TWELVE FIQU'RES)

"A feature of cardiac muscle unlike anything observed in the skeletal muscle fibers is the presence of intercalated discs. " ' ' The three characteristics differentiating cardiac from skeletal muscle are its anastornotic fibers, central nuclei and intercalated discs."

These are statements taken from the latest textbooks of histology and constitute the facts taught in courses of microscopic anatomy regarding the internal structure of muscle.
