Question 21 • Sports Medicine 1a

In a sports medicine seminar, there is a specialist who is speaking about myocardium. What is she MOST likely to say during her presentation?

Answer
A
These muscles require strength training to make them work.
B
This muscles work without humans guiding them.
C
The muscles are located in the lungs and help humans breathe.
D
These muscles are voluntary, striated muscles.

Explanation

The myocardium is the muscular tissue of the heart. Cardiac muscle contracts involuntarily, meaning it works without people consciously guiding it, so choice B is correct. It is striated, but unlike skeletal muscle, it is not voluntary; it does not require strength training to keep the heart beating.
