Smooth muscle is within the urinary bladder wall. Explain why, if you initially have the sensation of having to urinate, the sensation sometimes passes. Base your answer on the stressrelaxation response.
A skeletal muscle can be stimulated, under laboratory conditions, with a supramaximal stimulus. Is it possible for the muscle to respond with a supramaximal contraction? Explain
Compare the inner layer of smooth muscle with circumferentially running muscle cells,to the outer layer of longitudinally running fibres that have been sectioned transversely, which layer is easy to distinguish
