Name the layers of Skeletal Muscle
Epimysium – dense CT
- Perimysium – derived from the epimysium, surrounds a fascicle, a functional muscle unit
- Endomysium – reticular fibers and extracellular matrix

What type of innervation does skeletal muscle have as well as what neurotransmitter is it associated with
Voluntary innervation by the peripheral nervous system
- Neuromuscular junction (synapse) between unmyelinated axonal terminal (motor end plate) and individual muscle fiber
- Neurotransmitter – acetylcholine
What is a motor unit
a group of muscles innervated by a single spinal nerve
What is depicted in the image
Muscle spindle
