Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The bundle of muscle is covered by
A
Epimysium
B
Endomysium
C
Perimysium
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Muscle fibres combine to form a muscle bundle. A muscle bundle is lined on the outer side by a layer of connective tissue called perimysium. Multiple muscle bundles combine to form skeletal muscle, which is covered by a connective tissue called epimysium.

Detailed explanation-2: -A muscle fascicle is a bundle of skeletal muscle fibers surrounded by perimysium, a type of connective tissue.

Detailed explanation-3: -Perimysium is a sheath of connective tissue that groups muscle fibers into bundles (anywhere between 10 and 100 or more) or fascicles. Structure of a skeletal muscle. (Perimysium labeled at top center.) Studies of muscle physiology suggest that the perimysium plays a role in transmitting lateral contractile movements.
