Figure 8: SEM of the uterus at adult stage. Figure 8A: Mucosa of the uterus showing numerous complex mucosal uterine folds (UF) with many clefts between them. Figure 8B: The luminal surface of the uterus is covered by densely packed ciliated cells (cc) enclosing mosaic-like pattern arrangement of non-ciliated cells with apical microvilli (MC). Figures 8C and 8D: Higher magnifications of the luminal surface of the uterus, showing numerous ciliated cells with long cilia (cc) and the dome-shaped non ciliated cells with microvilli (MC). Notice the small blebs like secretions are accumulated on the luminal surface (arrow).
