The operation of contraction is much more durable than the skeletal muscle because it does not supplements consume as much energy as the skeletal muscle.
The contraction phase of this type of muscle is durable, because when the action of actin and myosin binding of-same steps that the contraction of skeletal muscle, less energy spent, the same amount of ATP, but lower consumption energy, ie, the expenditure of energy metabolism of ATP is slower than skeletal muscle.
Not only the time difference is a contraction of skeletal muscle with smooth muscle, but the gap shrinks is much nutrition greater than that of skeletal muscle.
Its functions contraction and relaxation are related to the entire natural autonomous nervous system - acetylcholine and adrenaline.
