Question
Chapter 4, Problem 1DCR
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The type of tissue observed by the student and the location of the tissue in the body.
Introduction:
A student observes the section of tissue and finds out that it contains different types of scattered protein fibers, various type of cells with different morphologies, and some cells containing “open spaces.”

Students have asked these similar questions
During a microscopy exercise in the anatomy laboratory,a student makes the following observations about a tissuesection: (1) The section contains some different types ofscattered protein fibers—that is, they exhibit differentwidths, some are branched, some are long and unbranched,and their staining characteristics differ (some are seenonly with specific stains). (2) Several cell types withdifferent morphologies are scattered throughout the section,but these cells are not grouped tightly together. (3) Theexamined section has some “open spaces”—that is, placesbetween cells and the observed fibers in the section thatappear clear with no recognizable features. What type oftissue is the student observing? Where might this tissue befound in the body?
Give the following (a.) cell, (b.) description, and (c.) type of fiber present in tissues below:
1. Mesenchyme
2. Wharton's jelly of umbilical cord
what is the full name of the TISSUE TYPE at the end of the arrow for letter C?
C1) what is the special name given to this area of this type of covering membrane?
C2) what is the FUNCTION of the TISSUE TYPE?
C3) What, most likely, are the purple dots in this area? What do they do?
