Blood Cell Histology
• I will use the diagrams similar to the ones on page 324 to test you on blood cells.
• Be able to identify:– Erythrocytes (red blood cells)– Neutrophil– Lymphocyte– Monocyte– Eosinophil– Basophil
Neutrophils – odd shaped, lobed nucleus
LymphocytesSmall (about same size as the RBC’s) with a
round nucleus that fills up most of the cell
MonocytesBig (they’re the biggest!) with a fat-U
nucleus
EosinophilsCytoplasm is more pinkish in color, VERY
granular, sometimes have a “snowman” nucleus
BasophilsCytoplasm is more blue-ish in color, VERY
granular
Name this blood cell.
Monocyte
Name this blood cell.
BasophilIf you are getting them confused with lymphocytes,
note the SIZE. Basophils are LARGER than RBC’s whereas lymphocytes are the same size as
RBC’s.
Name this blood cell.
Eosinophil
Name these blood cells.
Neutrophils
Name this blood cell.
Lymphocyte

Intro to Blood Vessels
ARTERY Tunica Externa Tunica Media
Tunica Interna: too thin to be seen, but is next to the lumen
VEIN
Tunica ExternaTunica Media
Tunica Interna: too thin to be seen, but is next to the lumen
Vasa Vasorum Vessels of the Vessels: supplies the walls of blood vessels
with blood. Found in the tunica externa of arteries and veins.
