This document discusses the different types of muscle tissue, including skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. It focuses on the structure and function of skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is made up of parallel bundles of long multinucleated fibers that produce skeletal movement. Each muscle fiber is an individual muscle cell surrounded by the sarcolemma membrane with multiple oval nuclei placed peripherally. Skeletal muscle is connected to bone via tough tendons composed of dense collagen fibers. Fascia layers like the epimysium, perimysium, and endomysium surround bundles and individual fibers of muscle.
