which type of muscle is type a? cite the evidence from the chart to support your answer.

type a are skeletal muscles, because skeletal muscles are the only voluntary type.
type a are skeletal muscles, because skeletal muscles are the only type with striations.
type a are smooth muscles, because smooth muscles tire quickly.
type a are smooth muscles, because smooth muscles do not have striations.

A option

Type A are skeletal muscles, because skeletal muscles are the only voluntary type.

Explanation:

There are three types of Muscles:

From the given table we have to identify which type of muscles are Type A. From the table we can list the following properties of Type A muscles:

These three characteristics belong to Skeletal muscles only. Therefore, option C and D cannot be correct.

Option A and option B both lists the skeletal muscles. Now we have to identify which of these is correct. Option B reads that skeletal muscles are only type with striations. This is incorrect as Cardiac Muscles are also without striations.

Hence option A is the correct answer as skeletal muscles are the only muscles that are voluntary muscles.
