Epimysium is a connective tissue layer that surrounds individual muscles. It is a dense layer of collagenous connective tissue that serves several key functions, including: 1. **Protection**: It helps to protect the muscle from injury and external forces. 2. **Support**: The epimysium provides structural support to the muscle and maintains its shape. 3. **Separation**: It separates individual muscles from each other, allowing for independent movement and functioning.
