Problema 9

Capitolo 13, Problema 9

The connective tissue sheath that surrounds a fascicle of nerve fibers is the
a. Epineurium
b. Endoneurium
c. Perineurium
d. Epimysium

Guida verificata passo dopo passo

Step 1: Understand the structure of a nerve. A nerve is composed of multiple bundles called fascicles, which contain individual nerve fibers (axons). Each level of organization is surrounded by a specific connective tissue sheath.

Step 2: Identify the connective tissue layers associated with nerves: the endoneurium surrounds individual nerve fibers, the perineurium surrounds each fascicle (bundle of nerve fibers), and the epineurium surrounds the entire nerve.

Step 3: Recall that the epimysium is a connective tissue sheath, but it surrounds muscle, not nerve structures.

Step 4: Match the connective tissue sheath to the fascicle of nerve fibers. Since the fascicle is a bundle of nerve fibers, the sheath that surrounds it is the perineurium.

Step 5: Conclude that the correct answer is the perineurium, which is the connective tissue sheath surrounding a fascicle of nerve fibers.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Nerve Fiber Organization

Nerve fibers are grouped into bundles called fascicles, which are surrounded by connective tissue layers. Understanding this hierarchical structure is essential to identify the specific sheath that encloses a fascicle.

The Muscle Fiber

Perineurium

The perineurium is the connective tissue sheath that specifically surrounds each fascicle of nerve fibers, providing protection and maintaining the internal environment of the nerve bundle.

Other Connective Tissue Sheaths in Nerves

Epineurium surrounds the entire nerve, endoneurium encloses individual nerve fibers, and epimysium surrounds muscle tissue. Differentiating these layers helps in correctly identifying the sheath around a fascicle.
