1. Which connective tissue cell type contains properties of smooth muscle cells? 2. One of the following cell is a connective tissue macrophage?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking about different types of connective tissue cells and their properties, specifically in relation to smooth muscle cells and macrophages.

More Information

Myofibroblasts are specialized cells that help in wound healing due to their smooth muscle-like properties. Histiocytes, also known as tissue macrophages, are involved in phagocytosis and immune response.

Tips

A common mistake is confusing fibroblasts with myofibroblasts due to their similar names but different properties.
