Question

Which type of muscle has myogenic activity?
I. Cardiac muscle
II. Skeletal muscle
III. Smooth muscle

• A. I
• B. II
• C. II and III
• D. I and III

Answer 1

The correct option is D I and III

Myogenic activity refers to the ability of a muscle to contract reflexively without nervous stimulation. Smooth and cardiac muscle both possess myogenic activity. Both the muscles are involuntary muscles. Skeletal muscles are closely associated with skeletal components in the human body. Their activity is under voluntary control of the nervous system and are not myogenic.
