Name of muscle/location
Name of muscle/location
Options
- A(a) Skeletal - Triceps (b) Smooth - Stomach (c) Cardiac-Heart
- B(a) Skeletal - Biceps (b) Involuntary - Intestine (c) Smooth - Heart
- C(a) Involuntary - Nose tip (b) Skeletal - Bone (c) Cardiac - Heart
- D(a) Smooth - Toes (b) Skeletal-Legs (c) Cardiac - Heart
Correct answer
A. (a) Skeletal - Triceps (b) Smooth - Stomach (c) Cardiac-Heart
Step-by-step solution
The correct answer is option (1) as
Figure (a) represents skeletal muscle fibres which are closely attached to skeletal bones. In a typical muscle such as triceps and biceps, striated muscle fibres are bundled together in a parallel fashion.
Figure (b) represents smooth muscle fibres which are present in the wall of internal organs such as the blood vessels, stomach and intestine.
Figure (c) represents cardiac muscle fibres which are exclusively present in the heart.
