Crystal Organisation of Muscle Attachment Sites of Bivalved Marine Organisms: A Juxtaposition Between Brachiopod and Bivalved Mollusc Shells

Crystal Organisation of Muscle Attachment Sites of Bivalved Marine Organisms: A Juxtaposition Between Brachiopod and Bivalved Mollusc Shells

The movement of valves of bivalved invertebrates is enabled through the action of muscles and the interplay between the muscles and the hinge ligament. The muscles that move the valves attach to their internal surface. To promote the structural integrity at the mechanically mismatched interfaces, a...
