a discrete bundle of muscle fibers
A
fascicle
B
myofibril
C
sarcomere
D
myofilament
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Each bundle of muscle fiber is called a fasciculus and is surrounded by a layer of connective tissue called the perimysium. Within the fasciculus, each individual muscle cell, called a muscle fiber, is surrounded by connective tissue called the endomysium .

Detailed explanation-2: -A fascicle is a discrete bundle of muscle cells, segregated from the rest of the muscle by a connective tissue sheath.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: A bundle of muscle fibers is referred to as a A. Fascicle. Fascicles are separated from other fascicles by a connective tissue covering called the perimysium.

Detailed explanation-4: -Fascicles can be parallel, circular, convergent, pennate, fusiform, or triangular. Each arrangement has its own range of motion and ability to do work.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are approximately 150 muscle fibres bundled together in a fascicle. However, this can vary based on the size and shape of the muscle. In the muscle as a whole, there can be between about 60 and 100 fascicles.
