Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Cardiac muscle is present only in the Heart of organisms which is involuntary in its action. The heart helps the blood to pump throughout the body.

Cardiac muscle shows the presence of intercalated discs which contain desmosomes and gap junctions. It is the presence of these gap junctions the muscle cells of the heart functions as a single functional unit due to the transmission of depolarizing current from cell to cell to different chambers of the heart.

Thus, option C is the correct answer.

Secondary consumers may be ____ eating meat or _____ that eat both plants and animals
Solnce55 [7]

Secondary consumers may be carnivores that eat meat or omnivores that eat both plants and animals.

<h3>What are secondary consumers?</h3>

Consumers in biology are organisms (heterotrophs) that uses other organisms for food in order to gain energy.

Consumers can either be primary or secondary. Primary consumers feed directly on plants, hence, are said to be herbivores.

On the other hand, secondary consumers feed majorly on primary consumers, making them carnivorous in nature.

However, secondary consumers may be carnivores that eat meat or omnivores that eat both plants and animals.
