The driving age should be raised up to 18 because teens can be a little careless. Driving at the age of 18 is a more mature age for teens because they can have more responsibility. Teens should not be driving at the age of 16 because they could be texting and driving or drinking and driving with some friends.
During contraction, the smooth-muscle cell's intermediate filaments help to draw the cell up, like closing a drawstring purse. Calcium ions regulate contraction in smooth muscle, but they do it in a slightly different way than in skeletal muscle: Calcium ions come from outside of the cell. Calcium ions bind to an enzyme complex on myosin, called calmodulin-myosin light chain kinase.
Smooth muscle is an involuntary non-striated muscle. It is divided into two subgroups; the single-unit (unitary) and multiunit smooth muscle. Within single-unit cells, the whole bundle or sheet contracts as a syncytium (i.e. a multinucleate mass of cytoplasm that is not separated into cells).mooth muscle is found within the walls of blood vessels (such smooth muscle specifically being termed vascular smooth muscle) such as in the tunica media layer of large (aorta) and small arteries, arterioles and veins.
