MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Each muscle is surrounded by a connective tissue sheath called the epimysium. Fascia, connective tissue outside the epimysium, surrounds and separates the muscles. Portions of the epimysium project inward to divide the muscle into compartments. Each compartment contains a bundle of muscle fibers.

Detailed explanation-2: -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.

Detailed explanation-3: -Multiple muscle bundles combine to form skeletal muscle, which is covered by a connective tissue called epimysium.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -The muscle belly is completely surrounded by a thick connective tissue called epimysium (epi-means ‘upon’ or ‘on’, and myo means ‘muscle’). This is continuous and eventually forms tendons which join the muscle onto bones. Each part of the muscle is covered by connective tissue to help provide shape and add strength.
