Facts about week 1
https://camcom.ngu.ed
Facts:
#1) Zebrina has two guard cells 1 in the upper
epidermis and 1 in the lower epidermis.
#2) If you look carefully in a 10x or 40x power,
you may be able to see a small opening
between the plants root hair as shown in figure
one.
#3) A stoma is a pore found in the epidermis of
a leaf. The pore allows gases to enter or exit the
leaf.
#4)There are hundreds of stomates in the lower
epidermis.
#5) Three most important gasses to pass through
each stoma are carbon dioxide, water vapor,
and oxygen.
#1, 3, 4, and 5 relate to the Zebrina observations. Group th
together. #2 relates to Timothy hay seed root hairs. Point ou
observed both species (Zebrina plus Timothy hay)

Week 2 facts
In week two we looked at red
and white blood cells in the
microscope. We identified single
celled and multi- celled
organisms. The white blood cells
looked purple and the red blood
cells were red. We looked at
human blood smears. We
looked at the different types of
white blood cells, Basophil,
Neutrophil, Eosinophil,
Lymphocyte, and Monocyte.

We looked at different bacteria and the different organisms that live and
move on the water.
It was interesting since we got to see the bacteria that was very hard to
find in the microscope. They were, hotdog shaped, curved hotdog shaped,
and berry shaped bacteria. We learned about good and bad bacteria. We
also filled out a worksheet about what we learned to help us for our power
point.
