Slide 02
Week 3 -- Look for connective tissue, especially peri-renal adipose.
Note that fat droplets come in two sizes. The large size is found in white fat, or "unilocular fat" (in which there is one droplet per cell). The small size is found in brown fat, or "multilocular fat", in which there are several droplets per cell.
Week 2 -- Find transitional epithelium (in the pelvis and ureter), simple cuboidal epithelium (lining renal tubules), and simple squamous epithelium (lining Bowman's capsule of the renal corpuscles).
For more, see kidney.
