2-3 Covering epithelia

WHAT TISSUE IS THIS – 1?
In the image of this section, three very distinct regions can be seen.
Pay close attention to these regions:

  • a “blank” white upper strip, a space without any content. It must be an empty space, probably the internal cavity of an organ or the external surface of the body.
  • a well-stained, acidophilic (pink) middle band with many nuclei.
  • a light pink acidophilic lower band with few nuclei.

The next page will show a larger magnification of a region similar to that delimited by the blue rectangle.
