Plant and Animal Cell Structures -You will be working in groups of 2 or 3. -You will need one computer for your group -Write the lab report in your lab notebook Order of the lab: Background – you can write the background found on the lab. Purpose – found on the lab. Hint – leucoplasts store starch. Hypothesis Materials – see lab Procedures – see lab Observations – for each of the drawings you can cut out the circle and tape it into your lab notebook. Analysis and Conclusion – write out the question and answer each of the questions. **You will not be making slides. You will not be using a microscope. This powerpoint contains all the images (slides)
Part I – Animal Slides -Cheek Cell on Low Power -Cheek Cell on High *Use the next slide to help you draw and Label the cheek cell*
Part II – Plant Cell (Elodea) Elodea under Low Power Elodea under High *Use the next slide to help you draw and Label the elodea*
Central Vacuole There are no nuclei seen on this slide. It does not mean the plant cell does not have one – you just can’t see it while the chloroplast are in focus
If you use a stronger microscope look at the elodea leaf and the chloroplast throughout the whole plant cell. Pretty cool, right?
Part II – Potato cell Potato Cells under Low Power Potato Cell under High Power Use the next slide to draw the potato cells and the leucoplast. To make this slide, I put iodine on top of the potato. Remember, Iodine turns black when there is starch. Leucoplasts are specific organelle in a potato cell – this is where the starch is store.
Part II – Onion cell Onion Cell on Low Power High Power
FOR FUN Watch the video link before. Draw what you see under the microscope. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXqyC NAYrH4
