Slow twitch fibers are located within muscles used for endurance and posture. They have a red coloring due to an abundance of myoglobin and participate in aerobic glycolysis. Slow twitch fibers contain large amounts of mitochondria and fewer glycolytic enzymes in order to enhance ATP production and maintain contractions for longe periods of time. Slow twitch fibers are associated with endurance fitness, such as running a marathon, and prolonged postural contractions, such as the muscles that keep the spine and neck erect.

Fast twitch fibers are located within muscles used for spurt and explosive excercises. They have a white coloring due to a lack in myoglobin and participate in anaerobic glycolysis. Fast twitch fibers contain fewer mitochondria and more glycolytic enzymes, aiding in rapid (but unsastainable) energy production. Fast twitch fibers are associated with speed and agility fitness, such as a sprinting a short distance.

Most skeletal muscles have origins closer to the midline than their insertions. The bone from which the muscle originates is typically held steady, while the bone onto which the muscle inserts is pulled toward the origin point of the muscle during flexion. For example, the biceps brachii originate on the scapula and insert on the radius. When activated, the biceps brachii pull the radius toward the scapula.

Gap junctions only occur in skeletal and smooth muscle. Through gap junctions, the signal from the neuron to contract may diffuse throughout the muscle, causing wave-like contraction of smooth and/or cardiac muscle.

Intercalated discs are found only in cardiac muscle; they add structural stability to cardiac muscle, and help the propagation of action potentials due to gap junctions. The other features listed are features common to both skeletal and cardiac muscle.

Type I muscle (slow oxidative) consists of slow-twitch muscle fibers. Its fibers are red due to high concentrations of myoglobin, and it has a high density of mitochondria (and thus increased oxidative phosphorylation). This leads to a sustained contraction, and resistance to fatigue. Think "one slow red ox."

Individual skeletal muscle fibers are multinucleate and behave as single units. They contain bundles of myofibrils which are surrounded by a sarcoplasmic reticulum and is invaginated by transverse tubules. Each myofibril contains interdigitating thick and thin filaments arranged longitudinally in sarcomeres. Repeating units of sarcomeres account for the unique banding pattern in striated muscle.

The vastus medialis, one of the quadricep muscles is located in the anterior compartment of the thigh and is supplied by the femoral artery. 

The term pennate describes muscles whose fibers insert obliquely into the tendon. The vastus medialis, rectus femoris, and deltoid are all examples of this type of muscle. 

The fibularis longus is supplied by the fibular artery, a branch of the posterior tibial artery. All other statements are true.

The extensor digitorum longus attaches from the proximal anterior fibula to the dorsal surface of toes 2 through 5.
