GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Fascia, connective tissue outside the epimysium, surrounds and separates the muscles.

Detailed explanation-2: -Epimysium (plural epimysia) (Greek epi-for on, upon, or above + Greek mys for muscle) is the fibrous tissue envelope that surrounds skeletal muscle. It is a layer of dense irregular connective tissue which ensheaths the entire muscle and protects muscles from friction against other muscles and bones.

Detailed explanation-3: -The whole muscle is enclosed by a dense connective tissue sheath called the epimysium. (Epi-greek for upon, mys-greek for muscle). 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).

Detailed explanation-4: -There are three layers of connective tissue: epimysium, perimysium, and endomysium. Skeletal muscle fibers are organized into groups called fascicles.
