The muscles sometimes called 'chewing muscles' are the:

  1. Massetter and Temporalis

  2. Sternocleidomastoid and Trapezius

  3. Pectoralis Major and Deltoid

  4. Biceps and Triceps

The correct answer is: Massetter and Temporalis

The two muscles in the jaw involved in chewing are the masseter and temporalis. While the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles are important for neck movement and stability, they are not directly involved in chewing. Similarly, the pectoralis major and deltoid muscles are important for movements at the shoulder, not the jaw. The biceps and triceps muscles are responsible for forearm movements, not chewing. Therefore, A is the best answer for the question.
