The three types of muscle fibres are slow oxidative (SO), fast oxidative (FO) and fast glycolytic (FG).

Detailed explanation-2: -The three main types of muscle include skeletal, smooth and cardiac.

Detailed explanation-3: -Skeletal muscle fibers are broadly classified as “slow-twitch” (type 1) and “fast-twitch” (type 2).

Detailed explanation-4: -These include naming the muscle after its shape, its size compared to other muscles in the area, its location in the body or the location of its attachments to the skeleton, how many origins it has, or its action.
