Verified step by step guidance

Step 1: Begin by identifying the key characteristics of each muscle tissue type. Cardiac muscle is found in the heart, has striations, and is involuntary. Skeletal muscle is striated, voluntary, and attached to bones. Smooth muscle is non-striated and involuntary, found in walls of hollow organs. Connective tissue is not a muscle tissue but supports and connects other tissues.

Step 2: Examine the image labeled with the number 2. Look for visual clues such as striations, branching fibers, or intercalated discs, which are unique to cardiac muscle.

Step 3: Compare the observed features in the image to the descriptions of the muscle tissue types. For example, if the tissue has striations and intercalated discs, it is likely cardiac muscle.

Step 4: Eliminate options that do not match the observed features. For instance, if the tissue lacks striations, it cannot be skeletal or cardiac muscle.

Step 5: Based on the visual evidence and the characteristics of the tissue, determine the correct type of muscle tissue represented in the image labeled with the number 2.
