Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is: endomysium.

Explanation:

There are three different layers of connective tissue that ensheath muscle.

The endomysium wraps each muscle fiber, the perimysium ensheaths a number of muscle fibers into fascicles, and the epimysium surrounds the whole muscle.

The endomysium is a thin layer of connective tissue, mostly composed of collagen, that has capillaries and nerves. It also provides the proper environment for the exchange of electrolytes like calcium, which is a key element in the process of muscle contraction.
