NEET (UG) 2024 — Question 151
Three types of muscles are given as a, b and c. Identify the correct matching pair along with their location in human body:
Name of muscle/location
- Option A:
(a) Smooth - Toes(b) Skeletal - Legs(c) Cardiac - Heart
- Option B:Correct
(a) Skeletal - Triceps(b) Smooth - Stomach(c) Cardiac - Heart
- Option C:
(a) Skeletal - Biceps(b) Involuntary - Intestine(c) Smooth - Heart
- Option D:
(a) Involuntary - Nose tip(b) Skeletal - Bone(c) Cardiac - Heart
Answer: B
Step-by-step solution
The correct answer is option (2) as
Figure (a) represents skeletal muscle fibres which are closely attached to skeletal bones. In a typical
muscle such as triceps and biceps, striated muscle fibres are bundled together in a parallel fashion.
Figure (b) represents smooth muscle fibres which are present in the wall of internal organs such as the
blood vessels, stomach and intestine.
Figure (c) represents cardiac muscle fibres which are exclusively present in the heart.
