The connective tissues surrounding the fibres or cell is.....................

  • A.Perimysium
  • B.Epimysium
  • C.Endomysium
  • D.Myofibrils

Answer: C

The connective tissue around each muscle fibre is the endomysium.

Skeletal muscle is wrapped in three layers of connective tissue. The endomysium surrounds each individual muscle fibre (cell). The perimysium wraps bundles of fibres, called fascicles, and the epimysium encloses the whole muscle and continues into the tendon.

Myofibrils are not connective tissue at all; they are the contractile threads inside each muscle fibre, made of actin and myosin filaments.
