Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Tissue

The image shows a cross-section of a tissue with a central canal and concentric rings. This structure is characteristic of bone tissue, specifically compact bone.

Step 2: Identify the Central Structure

The central dark area is known as the Haversian canal (or central canal), which contains blood vessels and nerves.

Step 3: Identify the Cell at the Pointer

The red pointer is indicating a small, dark, oval structure within the concentric rings. These structures are lacunae, which house osteocytes (bone cells).

Final Answer

  • Tissue: Compact bone
  • Cell at the pointer: Osteocyte
