Características histológicas del encéfalo del avestruz macho (Struthio Camelus)

Abstract

To understand the cellular anatomy of the encephalon and tissues of male ostrich (Struthio camelus) it has been made a histological characterization of three encephalons samples, that were extracted of three ostriches males from the same breeding center to which they applied microscopy and histological technique with the objective to recognize and describing different regions and structures that are part of the overall organization of the encephalon of male ostrich (Struthio camelus). Derived from these procedures some neuroanatomical structures were identified and was obtained histological information the encephalon, these information can contribute to further research for understanding the relationship between encephalon structures and anatomical characteristics , physiological, behavioral, and evolutionary characteristics of this specie and other birds in general.
