In sections of the cerebrum, be sure you can identify:

• Meninges
• Pia
• Arachnoid
• White Matter
• Gray Matter
• Pyramidal Cell
• Neuroglial Cell
• Astrocyte
• Oligodendrocyte

Is dura mater present on your slide? If not, can you guess why?

List several functions of astrocytes.

In sections of the cerebellum, identify:

• White Matter
• Myelinated Axon
• Gray Matter
• Molecular Layer
• Purkinje Cell
• Granular Layer
   

List names of neurons found in the cerebellum and give their most important cytological features.

What features do Purkinje cells show especially well?
 

Now let's look at peripheral nerves.
