Organization of peripheral nerve Vs organization of skeletal muscle: easy understanding

Peripheral nerve : it is a collection of nerve bundles surrounded by a connective tissue coat, epineurium . 


Nerve bundle : it is a collection of nerve fibres surrounded by a connective tissue coat, perineurium 


Nerve fibre: it is a process of a neuron (usually axon) surrounded by myeline sheath (schwann cells) and  a connective tissue coat, endoneurium. 



Skeletal muscle: it is a collection of muscle bundles surrounded by a connective tissue coat, epimysium.


Muscle bundle: it is a collection of muscle fibres (muscle cells) surrounded by a connective tissue coat, perimysium.


Muscles fibre: when an individual muscle cells are surrounded by a connective tissue coat, endomysium.
