    Slow-twitch

    Explanation:

    Red meat is rich in slow-twitch muscle fibers. The slow-twitch muscle fibers are rich in myoglobin and blood capillaries. They also have many large mitochondria to generate ATP by aerobic respiration.

    These fibers are slow-twitch fibers as the ATPase in myosin head carries out the hydrolysis of ATP at a slower rate causing a slower contraction cycle.

    Slow-twitch fibers appear red due to a large amount of myoglobin and a rich network of blood vessels. They are capable of prolonged contractions and are fatigue resistant.
