Solution

The correct option is A Muscle fibre
  • Sarcolemma is the cell membrane of a striated muscle fiber cell.
  • It is the outer layer of a striated muscle fibre
  • It consists of a lipid bilayer and a thin outer coat of polysaccharide material (glycocalyx) that contacts the basement membrane. Hence, Sarcolemma is the outer membrane of muscle fibre.
So, the correct answer is 'muscle fibre'.
