SMOOTH MUSCLE TISSUE
- SMOOTH MUSCLE, because the cells are close together,
they do not line a free surface, and they have a spindle-shape,
with one nucleus (a) at their center and no striations.
Above the broken line, the smooth muscle cells are
cut perpendicular to their axis. Below the broken line,
they are cut parallel to their axis.
- a: nuclei of smooth muscle cells
- b: nucleus of a simple squamous epithelium surrounding the
lumen of a capillary (see c)
