To gain access to the muscle fascicles, their covering must be removed. How would this MOST likely occur?

Muscle fascicles are bundles of muscle fibers, and each fascicle is surrounded by connective tissue called the perimysium. Removing the perimysium would expose the fascicles. Sarcomeres, myofibrils, and myosin are smaller structures within muscle fibers, so removing them would not uncover a fascicle.
