Smooth muscle – cells w/ 1 nucleus, slender cells with pointy ends (fusiform), usually come in 2 crossed sheets (circular and longitudinal) around hollow organs. Usually contract slowly to move urine, empty bowels, move food, etc. All muscle cells (also called muscle fibers) come surrounded by a layer of connective tissue known as the endomysium. ................
