Beneath the epidermis is the highly vascular and well-innervated dermis, or “quick”. The deep dermis fuses with the periosteum of the ungual process of the distal P3. The outer two layers, the stratum externum and stratum medium, are generated by and grow downward from the epidermis of the coronary band (or coronet, similar to the cuticle of a fingernail).

The constituents of the tunica muscularis varies based on species and location along the length of the esophagus. Pigs, similar to humans, primarily contain skeletal muscle in the orad 1/3 of the esophagus which transitions to a combination of skeletal and smooth muscle, and terminates in uniform smooth muscle, distally.

These capillaries then form into venules, then veins that progressively become larger in size and exit the lung, entering the left atrium. Bronchial arteries originate from the thoracic aorta and also course along large airways, providing much of the blood supply to these structures, as well as the pleura.

Histologically, the sebocytes of the Meibomian gland appear identical to those of sebaceous glands in the skin, but are organized into a much larger, single gland. Glands of Zeis are specialized sebaceous glands that are associated with eyelashes, specialized hair follicles located at the margins of the eyelid.

The most ubiquitous microcirculatory vessel in the body is the continuous capillary, with endothelial cells linked by tight junctions and intercellular gaps of approximately 1 nm. Sinusoids are slightly larger than capillaries and are found in the adrenal glands, liver, spleen, and bone marrow.

The ceruminous glands contribute to cerumen, a waxy product composed of the combined secretions of ceruminous glands and sebaceous glands of the external ear canal.

On the other hand, both cardiac muscle and smooth muscle can respond to other stimuli, such as catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine) from the blood, hormones and local stimuli.

Respiratory bronchioles are lined by two types of epithelial cells: ciliated columnar cells and club cells (also known as Clara cells). These projections of cuboidal epithelium are often located on either side of the entrance into alveolar sacs, which branch from the “walls” of the alveolar ducts.

The gonadal ridges are protuberances within the coelomic cavity of the developing fetus. Ultimately Sex determination of the undifferentiated gonad is dependent on the presence of the sex determining region Y (SRY) gene found on the short arm of the Y chromosome.
