Hints for Slide ERG 14.
Hopefully, you have recognized this as glandular tissue, belonging to some fairly sizable gland. The question, then, is which gland? Is this gland endocrine or exocrine? (Are ducts present?) Is this gland serous, mucous, or mixed? (What kinds of cells comprise the parenchyma?) Hints on the next page are more revealing. Don't look until you are ready to confirm your identification.
