Cells, what a beautiful thing, we saw so many of them in our lab observation about Elodea leaf cells, cheek cells and as well as onion cells. We dropped iodine on each of the cells. Our first observation was the elodea leaf cell, it ws fascinating, watching it move and looking at its nucleus, and other cell parts. We dropped a drop of Iodine on it and as the iodine spread the nucleus became really clear.
Next we did the onion part, as we got the onion it was really cool. The onions were really fun to observe, take notes and draw pictures of it. I think that the onion cell was really interesting but another thing that got me really interested and wanting to learn more about cells and dive deep into this subject was cheek cells.
Cheek cells were really cool because you had to scrape out cells out of your inner cheek with a tooth pick. I thought it was really cool and interesting to see my own cells under a microscope. The observation was fantastic.
