Q

smooth muscle cell features

A

innervated by autonomic nerves
focal densities = intermediate filaments insert here, where contractile fibres, intermediate filaments and sarcolemma attach and intersect
dense bodies = where actin attaches, similar to Z line
caveloae = small invaginations, not very functional

cardiac myocyte cell features

A
ventricular = large, nonnuclear, bulk of muscle 
atrial = smaller than ventirucal
SAN = very thin, less cellular structure

Q

smooth muscle - excitatory our inhibitory innervation

A

can be triggered to contract or relax by sym or parasym and depends on specific area with receptors present
