Best answer

Answer: 3. (a) Skeletal - Triceps; (b) Smooth - Stomach; (c) Cardiac - Heart.

Key idea: identify the tissue from the drawing, then its location.

(a) Long, cylindrical, striated fibres lying parallel: skeletal muscle, e.g. triceps.
(b) Spindle-shaped, unstriated cells: smooth muscle, e.g. stomach wall.
(c) Striated, branched fibres with dark intercalated discs: cardiac muscle in the heart.

Only option 3 matches all three. Other options place smooth or cardiac muscle wrongly (e.g. smooth muscle in the heart, skeletal muscle in bone).
