Answer 1

A optionType A are skeletal muscles, because skeletal muscles are the only voluntary type.Explanation:There are three types of Muscles:Skeletal MusclesSmooth MusclesCardiac MusclesFrom 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 voluntaryHave striationsTires QuicklyThese 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.
