What is the epimysium?

  1. Bundle of muscle fibers

  2. Connective tissue surrounding muscle

  3. Thin membrane enclosing muscle fiber

  4. Connective tissue surrounding a fascicle

The correct answer is: Connective tissue surrounding muscle

The epimysium is a layer of connective tissue that surrounds an entire muscle. It is important in protecting the muscle and providing structural support, and it connects the muscle to surrounding tissues. Option A is incorrect because a bundle of muscle fibers is called a fascicle, not the epimysium. Option C is incorrect because a thin membrane enclosing muscle fiber is called the endomysium. Option D is incorrect because the connective tissue surrounding a fascicle is called the perimysium. Overall, the epimysium is the outermost layer of connective tissue surrounding a muscle, while the other options refer to different layers or structures within a muscle.
