Question:

Which of the following is true of skeletal muscle tissue?

A Skeletal muscle tissue consists of striated, cylindrical fibers, each of which contains nuclei located towards the outer edges of the fiber.

Explaination

Smooth muscle cells are elongated and spindle shaped. Cardiac muscle cells are cross-striated and quadrangular. Epithelial cells are tightly packed and cuboidal. This eliminates choices A, B, and D. Skeletal muscle cells are striated, cylindrical fibers with nuclei located towards the outer edges of the fibers.
