__First Slide__

 * Slide Number: 1**

The cells seem to be about 1/20 of the page. 400/20= 20 Micrometers. //They look like black circles inside of rectangular outlines.// //They seem to have the same basic shape.// //Yes, with some larger or smaller. But most are approximately the same size.// //Their arrangement seems to be trying to cover lots of space with no gaps. They form a V shape.// //There are black circles inside rectangular outlines. These may be clusters of cells or maybe even a nucleus.// //This seems to be the Onion Root Tip because it looks like pictures of these found in the textbook.//
 * Use High Power Magnification to estimate the size of the cells in your specimen (show your work):**
 * Estimated Size: 20 Micrometers.**
 * Use High Power Magnification to answer the following questions about your specimen:**
 * How would you describe the shapes of the things you see?**
 * Can you identify shapes that might be cells? Are they similar in shape, or do they appear random?**
 * Are they all about the same size?**
 * Do the shapes seem to form a pattern, or does their arrangement seem random?**
 * What features or shapes to you see inside the larger shapes? What might they be?**
 * Which of the five specimens do you think this is? Why?**

__Second Slide__

 * Slide** **Number: 2**


 * Slide Image (High Power) Slide Image (Low Power) Slide Image (Scanning)**

The cells seem to be about 1/10 of the field of view, which is 400 micrometers. 400/10=40.
 * Use High Power Magnification to estimate the size of the cells in your specimen (show your work):**
 * Estimated Size: 40 Micrometers**

//These look like black blobs with a few small dots scattered around. They don't look like cells. They have silver squiggly lines in them. There is no pattern. The sizes and shapes are all unique. This seems to be the bacteria because it doesn't look like it could be anything else.//

__Third Slide__

 * Slide** **Number: 3**


 * Slide Image (High Power) Slide Image (Low Power) Slide Image (Scanning)**

The cells are about 1/20 of the 400 Micrometer field of view. 400/20=20.
 * Use High Power Magnification to estimate the size of the cells in your specimen (show your work):**
 * Estimated Size: 20 Micrometers**

//This looks like crushed amethyst or purple tree bark. These are hexagonal shapes with small dots inside them. They are a range of shades but mostly all the same shape and size. They have a pattern which is connected hexagons. This seems to be the frog skin because it looks like it has the texture that frog skin would have.//

__Fourth Slide__

 * Slide** **Number: 4**


 * Slide Image (High Power) Slide Image (Low Power) Slide Image (Scanning)**

Each cell seems to take up half of the 400 micrometer field of view. 400/2=200 micrometers.
 * Use High Power Magnification to estimate the size of the cells in your specimen (show your work):**
 * Estimated Size: 200 Micrometers**

//These are stringy lines with some smudges. They are mostly the same shape and size. They form a pattern (see picture.) They don't look like cells, exactly, but probably are. This is probably the onion leaf because it is green, like leaves with chlorophyll in them. Also, it looks like plants previously viewed by the group Members.//

__Fifth Slide__

 * Slide** **Number: 5**


 * Slide Image (High Power) Slide Image (Low Power) Slide Image (Scanning)**

The cells are about 1/10 of the field of view. 400/10=40.
 * Use High Power Magnification to estimate the size of the cells in your specimen (show your work):**
 * Estimated Size: 40 Micrometers**

//These are purplish-red, circular blobs. There are small dots inside them. They are not the same shape but are the same general size. These are probably cells. This is most likely the cheek smear because it is the only possibility left and it looks like human cells or tissue.//
