Skeletal muscle and nerve bundles. Digitally enhanced light micrograph of a thin section through muscle and nerve tissue, stained for elastic tissue. A section through skeletal muscle is across bottom, showing the structure of the muscle fibres. Three nerve bundles (round) are seen above the muscle. Skeletal muscle is responsible for voluntary muscle movement in the body, including the leg and arm muscles.
