EXPERIMENT 1: MICROSCOPIC ANATOMY OF THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM In this experiment, you will observe the microscopic anatomy of the endocrine system to better understand PROCEDURE

1. Open the slide viewer to examine the low-magnification thyroid gland image. The follicles are spher colloid. 2. Next, examine the high-magnification thyroid gland image. Note that the cells lining the follicles are cells. 3. Record your observations in Table 2. 4. Examine the slide images of the parathyroid glands. Note that there are two cell types in this tissue. produce parathyroid hormone, are the smaller cells. Oxyphil cells, which appear during puberty, hav 5. Record your observations in Table 2. 6. Examine the images of the pancreas. Find the pancreatic islets. Special stains can be used to ident duce glucagon) and beta cells (produce insulin) among the islet cells. 7. Record your observations in Table 2. 8. Evaluate the adrenal gland and pituitary gland images. Record your observations in Table 2, then an questions.

The larger the cluster is, the lighter pink the stain is. the capillary permeation(pink-red color) is very clear in seems like there are three layers of zona fasciculata a vacuolted (purple color). In the slide shows both anterior and posterior lobe, which divided by the pars intermedia. the hormone-secreting cells (pink and purple part) are i surrounding by the vascular canals (the white p...
