Where is this slide taken from?
Identify 1 and 2.
Where is the best place to find mucous c.t., A, B, or C?
Umbilical cord.
1 - umbilical arteries
2 - umbilical vein
Mucous ct is best found is at the edge of the cord between the large vessel and one of the two small vessels. Mucous c.t. is a developmental c.t. that has far fewer collagen fibers than mature connective tissues. Hyaluronic acid comprises a large proportion of the ground substance in situ but is lost during tissue preparation. This results in the very loose appearance.
