Smooth Muscle

An involuntary muscle that controls internal organs like the stomach and intestines

Real World Example

Imagine you're in a crowded room trying to move from one side to the other without bumping into anyone; you have to navigate smoothly and instinctively. This is similar to how smooth muscles work within our bodies, automatically managing the movement of food through the stomach and intestines without us having to think about it. Just like you rely on your instincts to weave through the crowd, our smooth muscles involuntarily and efficiently guide digestion, ensuring everything flows smoothly through our internal systems.
