We are going over the questions from fridays lab. We're writeing our anwers on a white bord. So far my group has :
Methylene blue is necessary because... we think that that the cells are clear, so the methylene blue will make it blue. It made the cells visible and the air bubbles are completly white.
The dye can get inside of the cell because... it's like a sifter, the mythylene blue is small enough to get inside the cell.
Yes we do think the cell is made up of parts, because it had small lines, and a decent size circle.
Next we went over the anwers. Mr. Finely took another sample of his cheek cells and put it under the microscope that is atached to the smart bored. He put no methylene blue in the sample and all we could see were air bubbles. Next he put the methylene blue in as it was still under the microscope. The cells started to show up as the methylene blue went through the sample avouding the air bubbles and the cells showing up as it went.
Now Mr. Finely is sending people out to get 2 samples of grass. Next he made everybody that wasn't getting grass samples get microscopes and set it up. Then he said to break the grass in two so both groups could have one. we put one drop of water on the slide and then we put the grass on the slide. Next we put the cover slip on and put it under the microscope. We observed that it had little craks on it . We will comtinue tomorrow.
