Answer 1

The correct option is C Thigh is striated and voluntary

Cardiac muscle is found in the walls of the heart. It is involuntary and slightly striated. Smooth muscles are found in the gastrointestinal tract. These are non-striated and involuntary. Striated (or skeletal) muscles are found in the limbs and body walls. These muscles are voluntary (under the control of animal's will) and show dark and light bands thus they are striated.
