Mitosis Illustrations:
Notice that the cell spends most of the time
in Interphase during the cell cycle.
A cell just beginning Prophase
Late Prophase, almost metaphase
Telophase and cytokinesis, via a cleavage furrow, illustrated here.
Normal cells are distinctively layered and organized.
Cancer cells are disorganized with abnormal nuclei and
usually accompanied by rapid, uncontrolled mitosis
Epithelial Tissues:
Simple squamous epithelial tissue
Simple cuboidal epithelial tissue
Simple columnar epithelial tissue
"Stratified" refers to several layers.
Transitional epithelial tissue
Pseudostratified, ciliated epithelial tissue
Connective Tissues
Dense regular, also known as white fibrous connective tissue.
Dense irregular connective tissue, located in the lower dermis of the skin.
Adipose connective tissue
Reticular connective tissue, located in the lymph nodes, spleen and liver.
Elastic connective tissue, located in the walls of blood vessels and lungs.
