Please help, i need this to study, i dont get it, make the answer clear

In large groups of muscles, such as the quadriceps, anatomical
regions may be designated as surface (closer to the skin),
intermediate or deep (closer to the bone). The different regions may
have different ratios of slow-oxidative to fast glycolytic fibers. Data
for citrate synthase activity and tetanus frequency for different
regions of the quadriceps are shown below.
Which region probably has the highest proportion of fast glycolytic
muscle fibers?

Expert Solution
Introduction

There are seven types of muscle fibbers based on their twitching ability, and they are:

  • I (Slow oxidative)
  • IC
  • IIC
  • IIA (fast oxidative glycolytic)
  • IIAC
  • IIAB
  • IIB (Fast glycolytic)
