What is the difference between fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscle fibers?

A. They are almost identical.
B. Fast-twitch fibers can deliver a quick burst of power. Slow-twitch
fibers can maintain a contraction for a longer time.
C. Fast-twitch fibers are what keep us going on a long bike ride or
hike. Slow-twitch fibers are what we use while dashing for the bus
or jumping up for a rebound.
D. Fast-twitch fibers take a long time to warm up, but are stronger
than slow-twitch fibers once they get going.
