In Mamsa Vaha Srotas, what tissues constitute Mula?

• A. Snayu, Tvak, Mesoderm
• B. Moka, Pleeha
• C. Sira, Kandara
• D. Muscles and bones

Answer: (A)

The key idea is that Mamsa vaha srotas are the channels that carry the Mamsa tissue (muscle) and their foundational tissues come from the mesoderm, the embryonic layer that forms the musculoskeletal and connective tissue system. Snayu (tendons/ligaments) and Tvak (skin, including its deeper connective components) are connective tissues intimately linked with muscle function, and Mesoderm is the embryologic origin for muscle, tendons, and the dermal connective tissues. Together these tissues constitute the base from which the muscle-carrying channels arise, so they’re the best representation of what makes up Mula for Mamsa vaha srotas.

Other options mix tissues that aren’t the primary foundational set for this srotas—such as vessels or joints, or large musculoskeletal components without the connective-tissue context—so they don’t fit as the root tissue group for Mamsa vaha srotas.
