How should you respond to this claim? (a) Yes, her claim is correct. Three must belong to different organisms because all muscle is made form the same kind of cells (b) No, her claim is incorrect. The tissues in our muscles differ depending on the muscle's function, so these could be three different types of muscle in one organism (c) Her claim is somewhat correct. The first muscle sample comes from one type of animal, while the last two are from the same animal, but are two different parts of the same musclearrow_forward
