Solution

The correct option is C Both the statements are correct.
Skeletal muscles are mostly attached to bones. They help in body movement. These muscles show alternate light and dark bands or striations under the microscope. Hence, they are also called striated muscles. These muscles can be controlled by our conscious will and are called voluntary muscles. These muscles are found in the limbs, body walls, tongue, etc.
