Here are notes on arteries and veins 

here are some of the slides 

Observe the microscope slides on blood.  For the human samples, 

1.  DRAW THE SPECIMEN. Use a petri dish to draw the circle. 

2.  Label and identify the FORMED ELEMENTS  that you can see such as RBC, WBC, platelets

3.  summarize some information on your specimen using the notes as a guide.  Write these in point form.  Conclusion:  

In a few sentences, identify some of the similarities and differences between human blood and the other mammals such as cat, and rat.  Identify how human blood is different from that of  frog and chicken.
