Caption:
Under a magnification of 4500X, this photomicrograph of a skin tissue sample, highlighted a region in which a number of capillaries could be visualized. Note that these delicate vessels exhibited a circumferential vessel wall with a thickness of only a single epithelial cell. Within their lumens, you will note the presence of erythrocytes, or red blood cells (RBCs).
