A calcified skeletal muscle is an example of
A) bone spurs.
B) osteoporosis.
C) heterotopic bone formation.
D) osteodysplasia.
E) osteomalacia.

Accepted Answer

Calcification of skeletal muscle is not a normal biological process. Heterotopic bone formation refers to the abnormal growth of bone in soft tissues like muscle, which can occur due to trauma or as a complication of certain medical conditions or surgeries. Bone spurs (A), osteoporosis (B), osteodysplasia (D), and osteomalacia (E) are all different conditions that affect bone, and do not involve calcification of muscle tissue.
