Connective tissue is present in all muscles as fascia. Enclosing each muscle is a layer of connective tissue known as the epimysium; enclosing each fascicle is a layer called the perimysium, and enclosing each muscle fiber is a layer of connective tissue called the endomysium.
Composed of orderly arrangement of connective tissue and contractile cells. Entire muscle is surrounded by connective tissue wrapping, Epimysium. Skeletal Muscle is made of Fasicles, which are bundles of individual muscle cells, which are each surrounded by a connective tissue layer called Perimysium. Internal Structure of Skeletal Muscle. A bundle of muscle cells (fibers) bound together by connective tissue to form a functional unit.
