Study Notes
Vertebral Column of Toad
- Vertebrae are procoelous, meaning the concave surface faces anteriorly
Humerus of Toad
- The head of the humerus is spherical, distinct from other vertebrates
Glomerulus of Bufo Kidney
- The glomerulus appears spherical in cross-section
Spinal Cord of a Rabbit
- T.S. (transverse section) shows a central canal surrounded by grey matter and a peripheral region of white matter.
- The grey matter contains nerve cell bodies and dendrites.
- The white matter contains myelinated nerve fibers.
Pancreas of a Rat
- Shows cells arranged in islets of Langerhans, appearing as irregular clusters
Areolar Connective Tissue
- Loosely arranged fibers and cells, including fibroblasts, mast cells, and macrophages
Mucous Connective Tissue
- Abundant ground substance with a few cells and fibers, often found in umbilical cord
Dense Bone
- Concentric lamellae and central canal, arranged as osteons
Trachea of Rabbit with Hyaline Cartilage
- Presence of rings of hyaline cartilage around the trachea
Importance of Tissue Identification
- Proper diagnosis and treatment of diseases
- Understanding the structure and function of organs
- Researching the development and regeneration of tissues
