The present research was conducted on the tongue of eight dead emu birds (both male and female) collected from poultry farm of GADVASU, Ludhiana to investigate its histological and scanning electron microscopic details. The tissue pieces of tongue were processed for light and scanning electron microscopic studies. The lingual surfaces were lined by stratified squamous non keratinized epithelium. Tongue consisted of connective tissue, mucus glands, blood vessels, Herbst corpuscles, lingual skeleton and striated muscles. SEM indicated desquamating and non-desquamating epithelial cells along with microplicae were observed. Microvilli were very few. The area of papillae was devoid of any glandular openings.

The structure of the normal human stapes was studied with the scanning electron microscope. Specimens were obtained 48 hours after death from adult human temporal bones free from obvious inflammatory disease. The specimens were fixed, dissected, critical-point dried and coated with gold. In this scanning electron microscopic study an attempt has been made to systematically demonstrate the average scanning electron microscopic features of various areas of the normal human stapes. An emphasis has been placed upon demonstrating as clearly as possible the details previously unclear or unrecognized and duplication of many excellent earlier light and electron microscopic studies has not been attempted. The typical appearance of the stapes head, neck, arch, crura and footplate has been presented. It is apparent that there exists a high degree of structural specialization particularly in the stapes arch and footplate area.
