- After looking at the muscle tissue samples under a microscope, a classmate claims that they must come from three different organisms since they look so different. 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.
