Question

the ability of smooth muscle to function over a wide range of lengths is called extensibility. variability. contractility. plasticity. elasticity.

Explanation:

Extensibility is the property of muscle that allows it to be stretched or extended over a wide range of lengths. Variability refers to differences or changes, contractility is the ability to contract, plasticity is the ability to undergo deformation without rupture, and elasticity is the ability to return to the original shape after stretching.

Answer:

extensibility.
