Definition: The 10-year Treasury note is a loan you make to the U.S. government. It is one of the U.S. Treasury bills, notes, and bonds, and it's the only one that matures in a decade. The 10-year Treasury note rate is the yield or rate of return, you get for investing in this note. The yield is important because it is the benchmark that guides other interest rates. The major exception is adjustable rate mortgages, which follow the fed funds rate.
Smooth Muscle. Found in walls of most hollow organs(except heart); Usually in two layers (longitudinal and circular); lack coarse connective tissue sheath; smooth muscle fibers SR is less developed then that of skeletal muscle and lacks specific pattern relative to myofilaments (no sacromeres, myofibrils or t tubules). â¢.
Except for the heart, which is made of cardiac muscle, the muscle in the walls of all the body's hollow organs is almost entirely smooth muscle. The chemical and mechanical events of contraction are essentially the same in all muscle tissues, but smooth muscle is distinctive in several ways.his propulsive action is called peristalsis. Contraction of smooth muscle in the rectum, urinary bladder, and uterus helps those organs expel their contents. Smooth muscle contraction also accounts for the constricted breaking of asthma and for stomach craps.
