The correct Answer is:
To identify the incorrect statements from the given options, let's analyze each statement step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement (i): Muscles of iris and ciliary body are smooth muscles of mesodermal origin.** - **Analysis:** The muscles of the iris and ciliary body are indeed smooth muscles, but they originate from neuroectoderm, not mesoderm. Therefore, this statement is incorrect. 2. **Statement (ii): Slow and sustained involuntary contraction of smooth muscles are called spasms.** - **Analysis:** This statement is also incorrect. Spasms refer to short-lived, involuntary contractions of muscles, not sustained contractions. Sustained contractions are typically referred to as "tonic contractions" or "tension." 3. **Statement (iii): Quiescent mononucleate myogenic cells of skeletal muscles are called pericytes.** - **Analysis:** This statement is correct. Pericytes are indeed quiescent mononucleate cells associated with blood vessels and can differentiate into myogenic cells. 4. **Statement (iv): Skeletal muscle fiber is multinucleate and is a syncytium.** - **Analysis:** This statement is also correct. Skeletal muscle fibers are multinucleated and are formed by the fusion of myoblasts, making them a syncytium. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statements are: - (i) Muscles of iris and ciliary body are smooth muscles of mesodermal origin. - (ii) Slow and sustained involuntary contraction of smooth muscles are called spasms. Thus, the answer is that statements (i) and (ii) are incorrect. ### Final Answer: The incorrect statements are (i) and (ii). ---
