Question : Differentiate between Single-unit and multi-unit smooth muscles

Answer»

Solution :Single-unit muscles are composed of muscle fibres closely joined TOGETHER by gap junctions, all fibres in a muscle CONTRACT together as a single unit. Whereas, in multi-unit muscles, fibres remain separated from each other by a BASEMENT MEMBRANE, the individual fibres ofthese muscles thus contract as separate units.
