3. Circle the example(s) of cardiac muscle:

Explanation

The correct answer is heart because the heart is composed of cardiac muscle tissue. Cardiac muscle is a specialized type of muscle found only in the heart. It is responsible for the contraction and relaxation of the heart, allowing it to pump blood throughout the body. The other options listed, such as stomach, jaw, arm, and blood vessels, do not contain cardiac muscle.

Submit
4. Circle the example(s) of skeletal muscle:

Explanation

The jaw and the arm are examples of skeletal muscles. Skeletal muscles are attached to bones and are responsible for voluntary movements, such as chewing (jaw) and lifting (arm). The stomach, heart, and blood vessels are not skeletal muscles. The stomach has smooth muscle tissue, the heart has cardiac muscle tissue, and the blood vessels have smooth muscle tissue.

Submit
5. Fill in the concept map below with the appropriate name of the muscle tissue.

They are striated in appearance and are under conscious control. Skeletal muscle tissue is made up of long, cylindrical cells called muscle fibers, which are multinucleated and contain specialized contractile proteins that allow for muscle contraction.
