ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The connective tissue sheath covering each fasciculus is known as perimysium, and the innermost sheath surrounding individual muscle fiber is known as endomysium.

Detailed explanation-2: -Perimysium is a continuous layer of collagenous connective tissue that separates the skeletal muscle tissue into muscle fascicles (i.e., bundles of muscle cells).

Detailed explanation-3: -Perimysium is the connective tissue surrounding muscle bundles, and endomysium is the connective tissue surrounding muscle fibres. Both types of connective tissue provide structural support to muscles.

Detailed explanation-4: -The muscle fibres are divided up into bundles of fibres called ‘fascicles’. Fibrous sheaths that surround the fascicles are called the perimysium (peri is greek for around). Blood vessels, the lymphatics and the nerves are all found in the perimysium.

Detailed explanation-5: -The epimysium is the dense connective tissue that surrounds the entire muscle tissue. The epimysium usually contains many bundles (fascicles) of muscle fibers. 2. The perimysium is the connective tissue that surrounds each bundle of muscle fibers.
