AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Muscle Structure**: Striated muscle fibers, also known as skeletal muscle fibers, are organized into bundles called fascicles. 2. **Connective Tissue in Muscles**: Each fascicle is surrounded by a layer of connective tissue. This connective tissue serves to protect the muscle fibers and also helps in the transmission of force generated by muscle contraction. 3. **Identifying the Correct Connective Tissue**: The specific type of connective tissue that surrounds each fascicle is called the perimysium. 4. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the bundles of striated muscle fibers (fascicles) are enclosed in perimysium. 5. **Final Answer**: The correct answer is perimysium. ---
