block14_06.jpg - Fig. 1 & 2, Q-1-b, Testis, h&e; 93W7206, Testis, ihThe seminiferous tubules and the tunica albuginea (TA or capsule) of the testis organ are identified in this section. Extending from the capsule are connective tissue septa (S) that divide the organ into several ( about 250) compartments or lobules. Each compartment (L ¡V corresponding to a lobule) contains coiled seminiferous tubules. Blood vessels (BV) are abundant under the capsule that located between the tunica albuginea and seminiferous tubules is referred as the tunica vasculosa. The branches of the blood vessels extending within the connective tissue septa are also observed.The seminiferous tubules are convoluted, therefore, the profiles of them present in a section are variable in appearance. Sometimes, the wall of a tubule is sectioned tangentially, thus obscuring the lumen and revealing what appears to be a solid mass of cells (X).
