BLOOD CELL, TEM
Blood capillary with red blood cells and three granulocytes (white blood cells). The variation in shape of the red blood cells (here, in red) is due to two factors: - (1) Their position in the planigraphic plane (some are perpendicular to the planigraphic plane and show a typical "dumbbell" shape, whereas others were cut obliquely or along their width, forming either a crescent or a circular shape on the image) - (2) Red blood cells are soft and malleable.
