      Orcein (elastic fibers)

    Correct Answer
    A. Gomori staining method (reticular fibers)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Gomori staining method (reticular fibers). This staining method is specifically used to identify reticular fibers. Reticular fibers are a type of connective tissue fibers that form a delicate network, providing support and structure to various organs and tissues. The Gomori staining method involves using silver salts to selectively stain reticular fibers, making them easily visible under a microscope. This staining technique is commonly used in histology and pathology to study the distribution and characteristics of reticular fibers in different tissues.

    • A.

      Skeletal muscle (IH)

    • B.

      Cardiac muscle (IH)

    • C.

      Smooth muscle (IH)

    Correct Answer
    A. Skeletal muscle (IH)
    Explanation
    The staining method used to identify skeletal muscle is immunohistochemistry (IH). This technique involves using specific antibodies that bind to specific proteins in the tissue sample, allowing for the visualization and identification of skeletal muscle cells. By using IH, researchers can distinguish skeletal muscle from other types of muscle, such as cardiac muscle and smooth muscle, which may have different protein markers.

      Gomori staining method (reticular fibers)

    • C.

      HE

    Correct Answer
    A. Orcein (elastic fibers)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Orcein (elastic fibers). Orcein is a staining method used to visualize elastic fibers in tissues. Elastic fibers are a component of connective tissue that provide elasticity and resilience to various organs and tissues in the body. Orcein stains these fibers purple or brown, allowing them to be easily identified under a microscope. This staining method is commonly used in histology and pathology to study the structure and function of elastic fibers in different tissues.

    Identify the staining method.

    • A.

      Massons trichrom

    • B.

      Mallory-azan

    • C.

      Gomori staining method (HE)

    Correct Answer
    A. Massons trichrom
    Explanation
    Massons trichrome staining method is used to differentiate collagen from other tissue components. It involves staining collagen fibers blue, muscle fibers red, and nuclei black. This staining method is commonly used in histology to visualize and study connective tissue, such as in the assessment of fibrosis or scar tissue formation.

    • A.

      Pituitary gland (Massons trichrome)

    • B.

      Adrenal gland (Mallory-azan)

    • C.

      Testis (Massons trichrome)

    Correct Answer
    A. Pituitary gland (Massons trichrome)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Massons trichrome because it is a staining method commonly used to differentiate collagen from other tissue components. The Pituitary gland is stained using Massons trichrome to highlight the collagen fibers present in the tissue. This staining method involves the use of three different dyes, which selectively stain collagen fibers blue, muscle fibers red, and nuclei dark brown or black. This allows for a clear visualization and identification of the different tissue components in the Pituitary gland.

      Epiglottis (HE)

    • B.

      Trachea (HE)

    • C.

      Larynx (HE)

    Correct Answer
    A. Epiglottis (HE)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Epiglottis (HE) because the question asks to determine the structure at the microphotography, and the given options are different parts of the respiratory system that can be observed under a microscope. Among these options, the epiglottis is a flap of cartilage located at the base of the tongue that prevents food and drink from entering the trachea during swallowing. Therefore, it is the most likely structure to be observed in a microphotograph.

    • A.

      Thymus (HE)

    • B.

      Spleen (HE)

    • C.

      Lymph node (HE)

    Correct Answer
    A. Thymus (HE)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Thymus (HE). This suggests that the structure being observed in the microphotography is the thymus, and the staining technique used is Hematoxylin and Eosin (HE). HE staining is commonly used in histology to highlight different tissue components, and it is likely that the thymus tissue has been stained using this method to visualize its cellular components and architecture.
