Answer:

The correct answer is "stress relaxation response."

Explanation:

Smooth muscle cells relaxes after being stretched which is called "stress relaxation response". If we explain it a bit further, smooth muscle cells lack gap junctions and because that contraction of a single cell doesn't spread to adjacent cell resulting with no strong contraction.
