This document is not meant to be a substitute for a formal laboratory report. The Lab Report Assistant is simply a summary of the experiment’s questions, diagrams if needed, and data tables that should be addressed in a formal lab report. The intent is to facilitate students’ writing of lab reports by providing this information in an editable file which can be sent to an instructor.

Please explain the purpose of this lab. Include in your explanation the major concepts you learned and any safety concerns associated with the lab. Learning the structural and functional differences among arteries, veins, and capillaries. Identify the major arteries arising from the aorta through observation and dissection of a preserved specimen. Identify the major veins draining into the superior and inferior vena cava through observation and dissection of a preserved specimen wear approved safety glasses at all times while working on lab experiments involving chemicals, wear gloves, lab coat/gown, mask, never eat, drink, or smoke while performing experiments
Exercise 1: Microscopic Structure of Blood Vessels obseRvations Sketch your slide in the space below and label the structures indicated in the procedure. Be sure to include a description of the structures you observed on the slide The slide looks like a river with few whirlpools. And “whirlpools” has three layers they are: 1 Tunica intima. 2. Tunica Media. 3. Tunica externa.
Questions
A. Describe the three layers of the wall of an artery.

Tunica externa: the strong outer covering of arteries and veins. It is composed of connective tissue as well as collagen and elastic fibers. These fibers allow the
