The answer is the second one: multinucleated.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Spindle shaped: This is correct. Smooth muscle cells are spindle-shaped, meaning they are elongated with tapered ends.
  2. Multinucleated: This is incorrect. Smooth muscle cells typically have a single nucleus, not multiple nuclei.
  3. Involuntary: This is correct. Smooth muscle is controlled involuntarily by the autonomic nervous system.
  4. Nonstriated: This is correct. Unlike skeletal and cardiac muscle, smooth muscle does not have striations (bands) when viewed under a microscope.

Summary: Smooth muscle cells are spindle-shaped, involuntary, and nonstriated, but they are not multinucleated.
