Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Skeletal muscles show striations and are closely attached with the bones of the limbs

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(d) : Locomotion (performed by limbs) in humans depends on the movements of muscle fibres. Skeletal muscles are attached to the bones by tendons and help in the movement of the parts of skeleton. These muscles are under the control of conscious mind and are called voluntary muscles. Under the microscope, these muscles show transverse stripes and hence are designated as striated muscles.
