Front Back
These are cells have intercolated discs associated with them
Cardiac Muscle (Muscular Tissue)
These cells have extensions branching off the SOMA. The AXON is generally longer than the DENDRITES
Neuron (Neural Tissue)
There are several types of Glial Cells. Many appear as small cells located near neurons.
Glial Cells
These cells are round and give the appearance that they are empty
Adipose
These cells are small and have numerous fibers coursing through the cells.
Areolar
These are small cells that have plasma flowing between them
Blood
These cells form concentric rings around a central canal.
Bone
These cells sit in a LACUNA. The lacuna is larger than the cell itself so light from the microscope shines through a large portion of the lacuna, giving the cells an area of white around them
Cartilage
These cells are packed together thus forming strong fibrous strands of material
Dense
These are small cells that also have fibers passing between them. These fibers are short and rather thick
Reticular
These cells are located on the surface if the skin and the inside lining of the mouth
Squamous Cells
These cells are located on the inside lining of the trachea and small intestine.
Columnar Cells
These cells make up the lining of the urinary tubules and some glands
Cuboid Cells
These cells can be found making up the blood vessels and the myometrium of the uterus
Smooth Muscle
These cells make up our skeletal muscles such as the biceps brachii
