Solution

The correct option is C Fasciculi
The bundles of nerve fibers are called as fasciculi. Each fasciculus is surrounded by a layer of connective tissue called the perineurium. Perineurium is a connective tissue layer that binds fasciculi together. Epineurium is the outermost connective tissue layer that surrounds multiple nerve fascicles and blood vessels. Neurilemma is the outer layer surrounding Schwann cell of a myelinated axon.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Fasciculi.'
