That is human skin viewed under 100X magnification. The blatent purple dots are cells (fibroblasts and maybe blood cells). The pink is collagen. I say the majority of the picture is nothing more than pink connective tissue. Most of the dells are in the epidermis which is a cell laden layer of the skin. The dermis (the primarly pink area) is what give skin it integrity, which is from the collagen and not the few cells that are present. Liver, bone, and ligaments/tendons are the same thing. I have more at home just found this quickly. ----- Derek Affonce
