Answer:

3. Cardiac muscle cells - are used to help the heart beat and pump blood.

2. Smooth muscle cells- are used in the digestion of food.

1. Skeletal muscle cells- are involved in movements of the skeleton (bones).

Explanation:

There are three types of muscle cells - skeletal, cardiac and smooth.

  • <em>The skeletal muscle cells </em>are the ones that form the muscle and help to contract and relax. The muscles for movement to take place. these are voluntary muscles and appears striated when viewed under a microscope.
  • <em>The cardiac muscles</em> are the ones that are found in the heart and are involved in the contraction of the heart for pumping the blood and making the heartbeat. These are involuntary muscles and appear striated under the microscope.
  • The smooth muscles are the ones that are used to control the involuntary movements in the body except for the heart. Since digestion involves involuntary muscles these are located in the walls of the digestive organs such as stomach and intestine. These muscle cells are non-striated.

Why doesn't asexual reproduction result in variation among offspring and parents?
nalin [4]

There is no mating or mixing of genetics in asexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction results in a clone of the parent; the offspring has identical DNA as the parent. There is usually no variation from generation to generation in a species population that relies on asexual reproduction.

One way for an asexually reproducing species to get some diversity is through mutations at the DNA level. If there is a mistake in mitosis or the copying of the DNA, then that mistake will be passed down to the offspring, thereby possibly changing its traits. Some mutations do not change the phenotype, however, so not all mutations in asexual reproduction result in variations in the offspring.​
