Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Muscle cells originate from ____
A
myoblasts
B
osteoblasts
C
dermoblasts
D
chondroblasts
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Myoblasts are the embryonic precursors of myocytes (also called muscle cells). Myoblasts differentiate into muscle cells through a process called myogenesis. During myogenesis, the myoblasts fuse into multi-nucleated myotubes, which later become the muscle fibers.

Detailed explanation-2: -Origin of Muscle Cells Muscle cells form by the fusion and elongation of numerous precursor cells called myoblasts. Some stem cell precursors of myoblasts remain in an adult animal, located between the sarcolemma and basement membrane of mature muscle cells, and these are called satellite cells in this setting.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mature skeletal muscle forms from the fusion of skeletal muscle precursor cells, myoblasts. Myoblasts fuse to other myoblasts to generate multinucleate myotubes during myogenesis, and myoblasts also fuse to other myotubes during muscle growth and repair.

Detailed explanation-4: -A myoblast is an embryonic precursor cell that differentiates to give rise to the different muscle cell types. Differentiation is regulated by myogenic regulatory factors, including MyoD, Myf5, myogenin, and MRF4.

Detailed explanation-5: -Myocytes develop from myoblasts to form muscles in a process known as myogenesis. There are two specialized forms of myocytes with distinct properties: cardiac, and smooth muscle cells. On the other hand, skeletal muscles are formed by morphological units referred to as muscle fibers.
