Name these connective tissue coverings beginning with the finest and ending with the most coarse?

From finest to most coarse the connective tissues start with endomysium which are then covered by perimysium to form a bundle of fibers called a fascicle. Many fascicles are bounded by the connective tissue epimusium which can either be bound to form tendons or aponeursoses (and these attach the muscle indirectly to bones, cartilages, or connective tissue coverings.)

What is areolor tissue?

Areolar tissue is another name for loose connective tissue. It is a very common type of connective tissue that supports many structures which are normally under some pressure and low friction. It usually supports epithelial tissue, forms a layer around small blood and lymphatic vessels, and fills the spaces between muscle and nerve fibers. It is found in the papillary layer of the dermis, in the hypodermis, in the linings of the peritoneal and pleural cavities, in glands, and in the mucous membranes supporting the epithelial cells.
