As promised, here is another pseudocolored electron micrograph (TEM) that I posted before, this one has all the mitochondria, and the golgi and the RER profiles separated out, in addition to the nucleus, lamellar bodies, and cytoplasm shown before.

I really wanted to add some “teeth” to this to make a joke for halloween…. I might do that, because the blue nucleus looked so much like a “skull” shape, just by chance.

But in seriousness, this lesion of a guinea pig type II cell just didnt show me any proviles of RER that had any kind of striations, layering, or indication that there was any protein organization that might be construed as what is seen in the other guinea pig alveolar type II cells shown in this quest.

Nucleus, green; lamellar bodies, blue; RER, orange; golgi, orange-red; mitochondria, turquoise blue; cytoplasm, pinkish; background and other tissue, pale peach.
