Chapter 4, Problem 30CP
Summary Introduction
To identify:
The type of muscle tissue that has small, tapering cells with single nuclei and no obvious striations.
Introduction:
Muscle tissue is specialized for contraction and producing movements. It includes the skeletal muscle, the heart muscle and the muscular walls of the hollow organs which are called as the smooth muscle.
