The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding which statement is incorrect about muscle types, we will analyze each statement one by one based on our knowledge of muscle physiology. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Muscle Types**: - There are three main types of muscles: - **Skeletal (Voluntary)**: Striated and under conscious control. - **Cardiac (Involuntary)**: Striated and found in the heart, not under conscious control. - **Smooth (Involuntary)**: Non-striated and found in the walls of internal organs, not under conscious control. 2. **Analyzing Each Statement**: - **Statement 1**: "Heart muscles are striated and involuntary." - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. Cardiac muscles are indeed striated and involuntary. - **Statement 2**: "The muscles of hands, legs are striated and involuntary." - **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect. The muscles of the hands and legs are skeletal muscles, which are striated and voluntary, not involuntary. - **Statement 3**: "The muscles located in the inner walls of the alimentary canal are striated and involuntary." - **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect. The muscles in the alimentary canal are smooth muscles, which are non-striated and involuntary. - **Statement 4**: "Muscles located in the reproductive tracts are un-striated and involuntary." - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. The muscles in the reproductive tracts are smooth (non-striated) and involuntary. 3. **Identifying the Incorrect Statement**: - From the analysis, we see that Statement 2 and Statement 3 are incorrect. However, the question asks for one incorrect statement. Since Statement 2 is more directly incorrect regarding the classification of skeletal muscles, we can conclude that it is the primary incorrect statement. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement is: **"The muscles of hands, legs are striated and involuntary."**
