Best Answer

In forming whole muscles, individual muscle fibers are arranged in bundles, or fascicles, held together by fibrous connective tissue.

Fascicles. These bundles of cells are encased in connective tissue--within the muscle bundle each fiber is wrapped in endomysium, another form of connective tissue.

Perimysium is the connective tissue that binds muscle fibers into groups. The muscles will be grouped in bundles of 10 to 100.


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.

Contractile and non-contractile heart muscles?

The non-contractile element are skeletal muscles that don't contract such as Epimysium,Perimysium and, Endomysium. Contractile muscle contract as a whole muscle instead of single bundles of muscle fibers


What shape are skeletal muscle fibers?

Each fiber is actually a muscle cell. They are found in bundles that form what we call muscles. These are also called skeletal muscles because when they contract and get shorter, the bones that they are attached to, move. And the bones are part of the skeletal system.

Howdo muscles move in your body?

Muscles make possible every move we make, even when we are sleeping. Your muscles move according to what they are fromed. To be more specific, a muscle is made up of many bundles of muscle fibers. Each of these bundles of fibers is called a motor unit. Each unit has a motor nerve which branches out at its tip. Each muscle fiber, therefore, has its own nerve ending to stimulate it. An electrochemical impulse is transmitted by chemicals from the nerve ending to the fiber, causing the fiber in that motor unit to contract and this is how each muscle of your body moves.
