Answer:

Both slow-twitch (type I) and fast-twitch (type II).

Step-by-step explanation:

Both slow-twitch (type I) and fast-twitch (type II) are the types of skeletal muscle fibers contribute to muscular strength, power, and endurance of the body. Slow-twitch muscle fibers contain more mitochondria and myoglobin in the muscles, and are aerobic in nature compared to fast-twitch fibers which is anaerobic in nature. It also support long distance endurance activities like marathon running, while on the other hand, fast-twitch muscle fibers support fast, powerful movements such as sprinting or weightlifting.
