Chapter 22.2, Problem 8CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
The type of smooth muscle cell found in the muscularis externa and the characteristics making it well-suited for that location.
Introduction:
There are two types of smooth muscle cell, namely, unitary smooth muscle cell and multi-unit muscle cell.The alimentary canal is composed of 4 layers, which are mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, and serosa. Each layer has a specific role in the breakdown of food. The muscularis help in the forward movement of food for digestion.

Students have asked these similar questions
6) Smooth muscle has actin/myosin, why is it not striated? (consider what striation can provide). What would happen if calcium could not get out of the cytoplasm but there was abundant ATP?
Muscle Physiology
Some skeletal muscle fibers are “fast-twitch” fibers (white fibers), and others are “slow-twitch” (red) fibers. Would you expect an athlete proficient in running the 100-yard dash to have a greater proportion of red fibers or white fibers in muscles of the leg? Why?
Define the following:
Maximal stimulus
Threshold stimulus
Submaximal stimulus
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
Define a motor unit. Of what physiological advantage is a small motor unit arrangement in skeletal muscle?
Explain why a latent period is observed between the application of a stimulus and contraction of the stimulated muscle.
Explain, giving two causative factors, why skeletal muscle displays fatigue.
Does complete or incomplete tetanus occur physiologically? Explain.
Define the following:
Isometric contraction
Isotonic contraction
Optimum length…
Muscle contraction experiment.
What happens to glycerinated skeletal muscle if you add ATP first, then add salt.
What if ATP and salts are added simultaneously?
