Name of muscle/location

विकल्प

• (a) Skeletal - Biceps
  (b) Involuntary - Intestine
  (c) Smooth - Heart

• (a) Involuntary - Nose tip
  (b) Skeletal - Bone
  (c) Cardiac - Heart

• (a) Smooth - Toes
  (b) Skeletal - Legs
  (c) Cardiac - Heart

• (a) Skeletal - Triceps
  (b) Smooth - Stomach
  (c) Cardiac - Heart

Answer 1

(a) Skeletal - Triceps
(b) Smooth - Stomach
(c) Cardiac - Heart

Explanation:

Skeletal muscle fibres, which are intimately linked to skeletal bones, are seen in Figure (a). Typical skeletal muscles like the biceps and triceps have parallel bundles of striated muscle fibres. The smooth muscle fibres found in the walls of internal organs such the stomach, intestines, bladder, and blood arteries are depicted in Figure (b). Cardiac muscle fibres, which are only found in the heart, are depicted in Figure (c).
