1. single-unit

   Smooth muscle is an involuntary non-striated muscle, so-called because it has no sarcomeres and therefore no striations (bands or stripes). It is divided into two subgroups, single-unit and multiunit smooth muscle. Within single-unit muscle, the whole bundle or sheet of smooth muscle cells contracts as a syncytium. Smooth muscle is found in the walls of hollow organs, including the stomach, intestines, bladder and uterus; in the walls of passageways, such as blood, and lymph vessels, and in the tracts of the respiratory, urinary, and reproductive systems. In the eyes, the ciliary muscles, a type of smooth muscle, dilate and contract the iris and alter the shape of the lens. In the skin, smooth muscle cells such as those of the arrector pili cause hair to stand erect in response to cold temperature or fear.

Examples of single-unit in a Sentence

1. Nathan Crone:

   This technology goes beyond available prostheses, in which the artificial digits, or fingers, moved as a single unit to make a grabbing motion, like one used to grip a tennis ball.

2. John Rosa:

   Uniformity is the cornerstone of this four-year leader development model, this process reflects an initial relinquishing of self during which cadets learn the value of teamwork to function as a single unit.

3. Chris LaRocca:

   People have told me I ’m crazy, that I could have 25 more restaurants open than I do now if I worked with single-unit franchisees, that may be OK for a year. But then I ’m dealing with dozens of franchisees and all the problems that come with that.

4. Greg Delks:

   As a single unit, you’re vulnerable. One downturn or even a 10-month street project in front of your store can ruin you, we realized multi-unit franchisees can survive better because they have access to capital, infrastructure and human resources. They can leverage that against multiple brands. And they can grow faster than single operators. We believe multi-unit operators are a much more solid foundation for growth.

5. Lorne Fisher:

   I think a lot of people come into franchising and buy a single unit because they want a job, if they get one unit and x amount of income, they’re happy. But enterprise-building franchisees must have the skills to manage multiple units at once and also run a back office. You’re dealing with lots of moving parts, and it’s not for someone just getting into franchising to pay the bills. It requires a radically different mindset than single-unit franchisees’.
