Pseudostratified Ciliated Columnar Epithelium 2 slide 040 trachea

Microscopic image revealing a cross-section of pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium. The top layer is composed of tall, narrow, light pink stained columnar cells with prominent stained nuclei. These cells are closely packed, creating a dense layer. Below this is connective tissue that has been stained pink/red with visible nuclei. The orientation of the tissue is oblique, entering across the upper left and going into the lower right. The background is a light white/pink.

A microscopic image shows pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium. The tall columnar cells are stained a light pink and are arranged in layers. Visible nuclei are stained purple. Cilia are present at the top surface of the epithelial layer. Connective tissue appears beneath the epithelial layer, with visible nuclei and blood vessels.
