Question

The table below shows some characteristics of three different types of muscles.

Answer 1

Answer: A option

Type A are skeletal muscles, because skeletal muscles are the only voluntary type.

Explanation:

There are three types of Muscles:

1. Skeletal Muscles
2. Smooth Muscles
3. Cardiac Muscles

From the given table we have to identify which type of muscles are Type A. From the table we can list the following properties of Type A muscles:

• Are voluntary
• Have striations
• Tires Quickly

These three characteristics belong to Skeletal muscles only. Therefore, option C and D cannot be correct.

Option A and option B both lists the skeletal muscles. Now we have to identify which of these is correct. Option B reads that skeletal muscles are only type with striations. This is incorrect as Cardiac Muscles are also without striations.

Hence option A is the correct answer as skeletal muscles are the only muscles that are voluntary muscles.
