12.2 Structure of Muscle Tissue

12.2.1 Skeletal Muscle

Skeletal muscle (Fig. 12.1) consists of long,

thin, parallel cells arranged into fiber bundles.

Each of these muscle fibers exists as a separate

entity surrounded by connective tissue, the

endomysium. Numbers of these primary muscle

fibers are held together in a bundle which is

surrounded by a larger sheet of thin connective

tissue, the perimysium. Many such primary

bundles are then held together and wrapped by

an outer, large, thick layer of connective tissue

called the epimysium. Figure 12.2 shows a crosssection

of rabbit Psoas major muscle in which

the endomysium and perimysium are readily

recognized.
