Solution

The correct option is A Red muscles
Red muscle exhibits a fused contraction at a slower frequency of stimulation. The red color of muscles is due partly to myoglobin, which is probably freely dissolved in the sarcoplasm and partly to the cytochrome, which are mainly associated with the particulate components of the cytoplasm.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A), 'Red muscles'.
