Muscle fibers when cooked are dark meat.
No. The darker meat is the muscle that was more commonly exercised when the turkey was still alive.
The difference between white and dark meat in a chicken or turkey is that the dark meat muscles move more rapidly (running) and the white meat muscles move more slowly. The dark meat has more myoglobin so the muscles can allow the chicken or turkey to run further and longer. The white meat has less because they only need a small amount of myoglobin for short bursts of energy.
