Answer:

The correct answer is skeletal muscles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Skeletal muscles are one of 3 muscles of the body; cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and skeletal muscles. These muscles are joint to bones with the help of tendons and voluntarily controlled by the somatic nervous system.

These muscles are a striated form of tissue with cylindrical, long, multinucleated and parallel to each other. These muscles help in movement.

Thus, the correct answer is skeletal muscles.

The tissue is identified as skeletal muscle tissues. These muscle tissues are long, cylindrical, striated, multi nucleate cells and are arranged parallel to each other

Skeletal muscle is one of three major muscle types other than the cardiac and smooth muscle. Most skeletal muscles are attached to bones by bundles of collagen fibers known as tendons.
