- Cover photo description:
- Smooth muscle tissue is made up of thin-elongated muscle cells, fibres. These fibres are pointed at their ends and each has a single, large, oval nucleus. Each cell is filled with a specialised cytoplasm, the sarcoplasm and is surrounded by a thin cell membrane, the sarcolemma. Each cell has many myofibrils which lie parallel to one another in the direction of the long axis of the cell. They are not arranged in a definite striped (striated) pattern, as in skeletal muscles - hence the name smooth muscle . Smooth muscle fibres interlace to form sheets or layers of muscle tissue rather than bundles. Smooth muscle is involuntary tissue, i.e. it is not controlled by the brain. Smooth muscle forms the muscle layers in the walls of hollow organs such as the digestive tract (lower part of the oesophagus, stomach and intestines), the walls of the bladder, the uterus, various ducts of glands and the walls of blood vessels
