Question

What type of muscle tissue is found in the biceps and quadriceps? What type of muscle tissue is found in the heart?

Answer 1

Biceps and triceps is smooth voluntary muscle tissue.

Skeletal muscles are sheathed by a tough layer of connective tissue called the epimysium. The epimysium anchors muscle tissue to tendons at each end, where the epimysium becomes thicker and collagenous. It also protects muscles from friction against other muscles and bones.

Answer 2

Skeletal muscle is attached to the skeleton and moves the body and its components. It appears striated (striped) under the microscope and is under voluntary control. The biceps of the arm is an example of skeletal muscle. Cardiac muscle is only located in the heart.
