Question

Under a microscope you observe a tissue that appears to have long fibers that appear striated. The nuclei are pushed off to the side of the fibers. The tissue looks very vascular. What type of tissue are you observing?

a. dense regular connective tissue
b. skeletal muscle tissue
c. dense irregular connective tissue
d. osseous tissue

Answer 1

Option b

Step-by-step explanation:

The structure of the skeletal muscle tissue is striated andis under intentional control, is secured by ligaments (or by aponeuroses at a couple of spots) to bone and is utilized to impact movement of skeletal structure, for example, maintenance of structure and locomotion.

Each of the skeletal muscle fiber is a solitary cylinder shaped muscle cell. A single skeletal muscle might be comprised of hundreds, or even thousands, of muscle filaments packaged together and enveloped by a covering of connective tissue. Each muscle is encompassed by a connective tissue sheath called the epimysium.
