exam 2
what do the arrows point at?
fibroblasts
Fibroblast and it’s typical elongated cytoplasm
Dense regular CT
Dense irregular CT
keloids
loose connective tissue
what is it and what do they contain in large quantities?
this is a macrophage. Notice all the phagosomes.
What is this?
What is 1?
What is 2?

This is a macrophage
- nuclei
- phagosome
Plasma cell
what is charactristic of this cell?
this is a plasma cell. Notice the clock-face
what is this? And how is it characterized?
This is a mast cell. Notice the extensive cytoplasm and all the granules
Mast cell
what is this this polymophonuclear?
Eosinophil with the two blobs
Eosinophil
neutrophils
what is this this polymophonuclear?
Neutrophil, It has three blobs
elastic fiber
lamellar elastic fiber
Reticular Connective Tissue
white adipose tissue
brown adipose tissue
what is this
eryhtrocytes in capillaries
what is this and what chracteristic it has?
this is an erythrocyte and it is anuclear
basophil
what is this and what is the difference between the other cell that looks like this ?
this is a basophil which is different from a mast cell beucase they usually contain two nuclei
lymphocyte
what is this and what is a characteristic of this cell?
this is a lymphocyte and it has little cytoplasm compared to how large the nuclei is
monocyte
what is this and what is a characteristic of this cell?
this is a monocyte and it has a U-shaped nuclei
platelet
platelet
platelet
what is the arrow pointing at and what type of cell is this?
It is pointing at collagen I and it is a fibroblast
corneal collagen
section within marked border

keloid scar
ground substance
what is the arrow pointing at and the asterik
- the arrow is pointing at dense irregular CT
- the asterisk is saying that it is loose aveolar CT
