Answer:

fasciae or, the outer connective tissue just under the skin is part of the structural integrity of the muscle, it also allows the muscle to be able to contract and relax. it can also be used to reduce friction of muscular force.In doing so, fasciae provide a supportive and movable wrapping for nerves and blood vessels as they pass through and between muscles.
