What is Types of Smooth Muscle Explained about?
There are two main types of smooth muscle: multi-unit and unitary. [1] Multi-unit smooth muscle consists of separate fibers that can contract independently, and is innervated by single nerve endings. [2] Unitary smooth muscle forms a syncytium where fibers are joined and contract as a unit, found mainly in viscera. [3] Smooth muscle action potentials can take the form of brief spikes or prolonged plateaus, allowing for sustained contractions important for functions like uterine and vascular activity.
