Retrieve your animal tissue specimens. If you have an Edmentum lab kit, your specimens are frog skin, human cardiac (heart) muscle, and human red blood cells. As you did with the protist slide, start with the lowest magnification and record what you see. Identify the structure of the tissue and whether you can see any individual cells and cell structures. Repeat with the next two magnification settings. In the answer space, write down what you observed for each sample under each magnification.

The frog skin is first dissected from the frog and then observed under the microscope.

Explanation:

The skin has squamous epithelial cells when viewed under the microscope. The squamous epithelial cells are flat and irregularly shaped that are arranged in thin layer.

Human cardiac muscle under the microscope looks striped and are involuntary in nature. Human red blood cells appears as disc shaped and red in colour. It does not contain nucleus and performs function of oxygen transport.
