Correct answer: (B) Comparable gain and larger bandwidth
Explanation
Surface EMG contains substantial spectral content above the main ECG band, requiring a wider recording bandwidth. Both measure small biopotentials and use comparable gain ranges; a mandatory twenty-decibel difference is not general. Therefore B is the intended comparison.
