Understand the hierarchical structure of skeletal muscle, which is organized from the largest to the smallest components.
Recognize that the entire muscle is made up of bundles of muscle fibers, and these bundles have a specific name.
Recall that individual muscle fibers (muscle cells) are grouped together into bundles called fascicles.
Differentiate fascicles from other components: tendons connect muscle to bone, myofibrils are the contractile elements inside muscle fibers, and sarcomeres are the functional units within myofibrils.
Conclude that the correct term for bundles of muscle fibers is 'fascicles'.
