Light micrograph of the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex. The cells of this zone take the form of rectangles elongated and arranged in parallel


Light micrograph of the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex. The cells of this zone take the form of rectangles elongated and arranged in parallel (nuclear palisade), forming oval groups. The adrenal capsule is on the upper edge of the image. Magnification: x180 when printed at 10 centimetres across.
