Question

Muscular tissue are formed by

• A. Ectoderm cells
• B. Endoderm cells
• C. Mesoderm cells
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C Mesoderm cells

Muscular tissue is found in vertebrates. Vertebrates possess three cell layers - endoderm (inner layer), mesoderm (middle layer) and ectoderm (outer layer). During embryonic development, each layer gives rise to some particular systems. Mesoderm forms all three types of muscles - striated muscles, smooth muscles and cardiac muscles. Therefore, option C is correct.
