1
Q
epimysium
A
outer layer of connective tissue around a skeletal muscle
2
Q
perimysium
A
connective tissue that bundles skeletal muscle fibres into fascicles within a skeletal muscle
3
Q
fascicle
A
bundle of muscle fibres within skeletal muscle
4
Q
endomysium
A
loose, well hydrated connective tissue covering each muscle fibres into fascicles in the skeletal muscle
5
Q
tendon
A
connects muscle to bone -> increases mobility
6
Q
ligament
A
connects bone to bone -> increases stability
