How are muscle fibers and membranes organized to form a whole skeletal muscle?

A muscle is made of tiny fibers. First it starts with one fiber that is surrounded by a layer of endomysium (connective tissue). Next a few more single strands of fibers are added to this one and wrapped around that is a layer of perimysium. this group of fibers is called a fasicle. then a bunch more fasicles get added to this one and is surrounded by a layer of epimysium. this creates the entire skeletal muscle.

What is a group of skeletal muscle fibers?
A skeletal muscle
Is skeletal muscle made of muscle fibers?
Basically, yes. All muscle (skeletal, cardiac and smooth) are made of muscle fibers.
What type of muscle fibers are there?
You have three types of muscle fibers. 1) Skeletal muscle fibers. 2) Cardiac muscle fibers. 3) Smooth muscle fibers.
What types of fibers are there?
You have three types of muscle fibers. 1) Skeletal muscle fibers. 2) Cardiac muscle fibers. 3) Smooth muscle fibers.
Why are skeletal muscle fibers unusual?
The skeletal muscle, or striated muscle, is the muscle attached to the skeleton. Most skeletal muscles are attached to bones by bundles of collagen fibers known as tendons. The contraction of skeletal muscle is under voluntary control.

True or false smooth muscle fibers are located in small skeletal muscles?
smooth muscle fibers are located in small skeletal muscle
The delicate connective tisssue that surrounds the skeletal muscle fibers and ties adjacent muscle fibers together is the?
The delicate connective tissue that surrounds the skeletal muscle fibers and ties adjacent muscle fibers together is the endomysium.
Do Skeletal muscle fibers tend to be shorter than smooth muscle fibers?
False
Do skeletal muscle fibers contain sarcomeres whereas smooth muscle fibers do not?
true
What are the bundles of muscle fibers within a skeletal muscle?
fascicle
What are skeletal muscle fibers enclosed in?
