GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Each fasciculus is surrounded by a thin layer of connective tissue, the perimysium. In the perimysium-which is made up of both collagenous and elastic fibers-the nerve and blood vessels branch off before finally reaching the actual muscle fibers. Each fasciculus consists of a number of muscle fibers, or muscle cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Muscle: Skeletal Muscle Connective Tissue 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).
