File:Glomerular number in Smoke Exposed offspring.png

Stained sections of Kidney from the control offspring (1st column) and smoke exposed offspring (2nd column) at 3 different stages; postnatal P1 (A, B), P20 (C, D) and 13 weeks after birth (E, F). There are fewer glomerular in offspring from smoke exposed dams at birth (P1), early postnatal life (P20) and adulthood (W13). Mature and fully vasculaised glomeculi are showed by closed arrows and underdeveloped glomeruli are showed by open arrows. The 3rd column show the number of developed glomeruli.

--Mark Hill (talk) 19:21, 8 November 2014 (EST) Assessment - Sub-headings should have been used for the caption, reference and copyright information as I have shown below. You have not identified the species used to model the smoke effect nor how P1, P20 and 13 weeks relates to the equivalent human developmental periods.
