Apr 26, 2021 · I will show you the light microscopic structure from smooth muscle longitudinal section labeled images. You will find the enlogated, spindle-shaped cells or smooth muscle …

Apr 16, 2023 · The longitudinal section of the smooth muscle possesses the typical characteristic features. That means you will find the fusiform or spindle-shaped cells with the two tapered …

Smooth muscle cells are spindle-shaped with a centrally located nucleus. Longitudinal Section: in relaxed smooth muscle, the nuclei are elongated with rounded ends. When contracted, the …

Examine the outermost part of the pink acidophilic region and identify two layers of smooth muscle: an inner layer consisting of fibers which have been sectioned obliquely or …

Jun 26, 2022 · When cut in longitudinal section, smooth muscle nuclei appear very long and sometimes wiggly (due to contraction). In cross-sectioned smooth muscle, only a fraction of …

Many longitudinal bundles of smooth muscle are cross sectioned in the outer wall of this large vein. Some bundles of smooth muscle look strange, almost nerve-like, because few or no …

Look at this section of smooth muscle, which shows smooth muscle cells both in longitudinal section (LS) and in transverse section (TS). Compare this to the diagram above, and make …

When viewed in longitudinal section, smooth muscle cells are long and cigar shaped, appearing almost to interdigitate with each other. This reflects the overlapping of the individual smooth …

A longitudinal section of smooth muscle shows non-striated, tapering fibers interlaced to form a highly compact tissue. The nuclei of smooth muscle fibers are euchromatic, centrally located …

Aug 12, 1996 · Smooth muscle - long, slender central nuclei, lying within narrow, fusiform cells that lie parallel to each other in a smooth arrangement. (Muscle cells are often referred to as …
