SKELETAL MUSCLE

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: -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-3: -A myocyte (also known as a muscle cell) is the type of cell found in some types of muscle tissue. Myocytes develop from myoblasts to form muscles in a process known as myogenesis.
