Dog cardiac muscle longitudinal section (l.s.) is the 9th slide in the Amscope 50PC prepared slides. A cardiac muscle is found only in heart. These muscles are involuntary i.e. they contract and expand automatically to keep heart pumping. I am not 100% sure but most likely the cark blue dots in the micrographs are the …
Dense connective tissue (section) is the 8th slide in the Amscope 50PC prepared slides. Dense connective tissue have densely packed fibers made up of mainly collagen (while lines in the micrograph below). The fibers in these tissues are regularly arranged and they are very strong but inelastic. Due to their in-elasticity, they can break if …
