ANAT2511 Introduction to Histology

From Embryology



ANAT2511 Fundamentals of Anatomy This histology practical support page content is not part of the histology practical class and provides only background information for student self-directed learning purposes. Histology lecturer notice.

Objectives

  1. To learn how to use virtual microscopy for studies in histology and to recognise parts of a cell and common features of cells and tissues.
  2. To recognise common features and differences between cells (e.g. size, shape, nuclear appearance, secretory components, microvilli and cilia).


Reading: Human Anatomy, Marieb et al., 6th ed., pages 23‐46


Learning Activities

  1. Examine the following virtual microscope slides and find examples of cells of different sizes and shapes.
  • Virtual Microscopy, Cells and Types of Tissue (6 slides)
  • The images are located in the ANAT2511 folder on the computer desktop.
  • Identify examples of the following cellular components: nucleus, nucleolus, densely packed rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough ER), microvilli, and cilia.
