Question

The breast muscle of geese have ____, while those of chickens have _____.A)  white fibers; red fibersB)  slow-oxidative fibers; fast-glycolytic fibersC)  red fibers; fast-oxidative fibersD)  red fibers; slow-oxidative fibersE)  slow-oxidative fibers; fast-oxidative fibers

nymyah roache · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  The breast muscle of geese contains slow-oxidative fibers, which are adapted for endurance and continuous activity, allowing them to fly long distances. Chickens, on the other hand, have breast muscles composed of fast-glycolytic fibers, which are suited for short bursts of activity, like the quick movements chickens often make.

The breast muscle of geese have , while those of chickens have _.

A) white fibers; red fibers
B) slow-oxidative fibers; fast-glycolytic fibers
C) red fibers; fast-oxidative fibers
D) red fibers; slow-oxidative fibers
E) slow-oxidative fibers; fast-oxidative fibers
