Smooth muscle tissue is composed of smooth muscle cells that are spindle-shaped with a single nucleus. Smooth muscles line the walls of hollow organs such as urinary bladder, uterus, stomach, intestines but also arteries and veins and the tracts of the respiratory, and reproductive systems. Smooth muscles are under involuntary control, meaning that their contraction is unconscious.
The glucose can be used as the immediate source of the energy. The cells can utilize the glucose to form the ATP molecules, which can be used as a source of energy by the body of the organism. The cellulose, chitin, and the glycogen are the polymers, they can only be utilized, once they are broken down into simpler forms.
