Skin blood vessel. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a blood vessel (arteriole) in the dermis of the skin. In the blood vessel are red blood cells (erythrocytes, red) which carry oxygen around the body. Some of these red blood cells are crenated. The blood vessel is surrounded by connective tissue which gives the skin its tone and elasticity. Magnification: 1000 when printed at 10 centimetres wide. | |
