Properties of Muscles
Contractility - the ability of muscle to shorten
forcefully, or contract
Excitability - the capacity of muscle to respond to
a stimulus
Extensibility - the ability to be stretched beyond it
normal resting length and still be able to contract
Elasticity - the ability of the muscle to recoil to its
original resting length after it has been stretched

Muscle Tone
Muscle tone is the constant tension produced by
body muscles over long periods of time.
Muscle tone is responsible for keeping the back and
legs straight, the head in an upright position, and
the abdomen from bulging.
Muscle tone depends on a small percentage of all
the motor units in a muscle being stimulated at any
point in time, causing their muscle fibers to contract
tetanically and out of phase with one another.
Smooth Muscle
Smooth muscle cells are non-striated small,
spindle-shaped muscle cells, usually with one
nucleus per cell.
The myofilaments are not organized into
sarcomeres.
The cells comprise organs controlled
involuntarily, except the heart.
Neurotransmitter substances, hormones, and
other substances can stimulate smooth muscle.
