Individual muscle fibers are wrapped in
A
Aponeurosis
B
Epimysium
C
Perimysium
D
Endomysium
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Each muscle is made up of groups of muscle fibers called fascicles surrounded by a connective tissue layer called perimysium. Multiple units of individual muscle fibers within each fascicle are surrounded by endomysium, a connective tissue sheath.

Detailed explanation-2: -Each bundle of muscle fiber is called a fasciculus and is surrounded by a layer of connective tissue called the perimysium. Within the fasciculus, each individual muscle cell, called a muscle fiber, is surrounded by connective tissue called the endomysium.

Detailed explanation-3: -Each muscle is wrapped in a sheath of dense, irregular connective tissue called the epimysium, which allows a muscle to contract and move powerfully while maintaining its structural integrity. The epimysium also separates muscle from other tissues and organs in the area, allowing the muscle to move independently.

Detailed explanation-4: -Each muscle fiber is wrapped within a connective tissue membrane known as endomysium, and muscle fibers are grouped together and wrapped within a connective tissue layer called perimysium to form a fascicle.
