These small pouch-like invaginations in the cytoplasm act like T-tubules in skeletal muscle. Smooth muscle cells are anchored by basal lamina.
Smooth muscle fibers form branching bundles. Unlike skeletal muscle fibers, these bundles are not perfectly parallel and organized. So they can contract much more forcefully than striated muscle.
