<span>DNA supports evolution because it carries genetic information. This genetic information is then passed on to offspring through DNA, which basically allows traits to be inherited, which allows natural selection to take place because the better genes survive, it carries the information and variation that ultimately fuels natural selection, driving evolution.</span>

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1. Muscle Fibers

2. Bones

3. Joints

Explanation:

Muscle tissue is made of muscle fibers. The plasma membrane of a muscle fiber is called sarcolemma while its cytoplasm is known as sarcoplasm. Muscle cells are characterized by the presence of specialized endoplasmic reticulum which is called sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Muscle cells exhibit contractility and extensibility. The ability of muscle cells to shorten their length forcibly in response to a stimulus is their contractility. Muscle fibers have the ability to extend and shorten themselves.

Extension and contraction of muscle fibers are responsible for the movement of the human body and its parts.

Muscles are attached to bones via tendons which in turn are the fibrous connective tissues. Muscles are also part of our joints where they assist in the movement by pulling the bones as well as stabilize and strengthen the joints.
