The first observation, we didn’t see anything. The second
observation, we saw a clear cell and it was moving left
and right by the pointer. Here, we can prove that the
Th
cells have motility. The third slide, we saw lots of cells. eat
ce
Some were moving and some were still because of the
red dye. The red dye slows down the cells. The cells ate
the red dye and if we look real closely, we can see the
dye inside of the cells. The fourth slide, outside of the
chromosome was moving toward the food a little more.
