Coloring Image

Histological section of cardiac muscle stained with H&E, showing longitudinally arranged cardiomyocytes. Visible features include striations along the fibers, centrally located cardiomyocyte nuclei, and intercalated discs connecting adjacent cells. Endomysium surrounds individual fibers, and small capillaries are present between muscle cells. The image illustrates structural characteristics of cardiac muscle tissue, including its branching fibers and specialized junctions.
