What is the Perimysium?

Covers the groups of muscle fibers called FASCICLES. Fibrous connective tissue. 

What is the Endomysium?

S fine sheath of LOOSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE CONSISTING OF MOST RETICULAR FIBERS THAT SURROUNDS EACH MUSCLE FIBER. (name means - within the muscle).

What is a tendon? What makes up a tendon?

A tendon connects muscle to muscle or muscle to bone. It is made up of the epimysium, perimysium and the endomysium. They converge to create the tendon. 

Why is it important that the three layers of muscle converge?

It means that when pull is exerted on one layer via the tendon a sequence transments the force of contractoin through all sheaths.
