D
myofibril
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Skeletal muscle is one of the three significant muscle tissues in the human body. Each skeletal muscle consists of thousands of muscle fibers wrapped together by connective tissue sheaths.

Detailed explanation-2: -Skeletal muscles may be made up of hundreds, or even thousands, of muscle fibers bundled together and wrapped in a connective tissue covering. Each muscle is surrounded by a connective tissue sheath called the epimysium.

Detailed explanation-3: -The epimysium is a thick connective tissue layer that is composed of coarse collagen fibers in a proteoglycan matrix. The epimysium surrounds the entire muscle and defines its volume. The arrangement of collagen fibers in the epimysium varies between muscles of different shapes and functions.

Detailed explanation-4: -Epimysium is the fibrous elastic connective tissue that surrounds the muscles. Perimysium is the connective tissue that surrounds the bundle of muscle fibers.
