SLOSS means "Single Large or Several Small". The SLOSS Debate occurred between the 1970s and the 1980s and related to issues surrounding conservation biodiversity. This debate had do with whether Single Large or Several Small (SLOSS) reserves was the best means of land conservation in a fragmented habitat.
From the researches that arose from the debates, the "single large" reserves favors a large land reserve is beneficial for species that have high risk of extinction, while the "several small" method is favors multiple smaller land reserves and is beneficial to species with low risk of extinction.
A prokaryotic cell might be recognized by the presence of flagellates used to move (the four long filaments located posterior to the cell). There are also many pili surrounding the cell wall (the small little filaments). There are almost no organelles. There is a circular DNI molecule concentrated in a nucleoid (which seems to be the grey oval in the middle of the cell). Prokaryotic cells also have different compartments that depend on the type of cells, such as chlorosome, carboxysome, phycobilisome, and others (which might be the dark spiral circle in the anterior part of the cell).
Two differences with the cell of an onion peel are that the onion peel cell has its genetic material surrounded and protected by the nucleus membrane, whereas the prokaryotic cell lacks a delimitated nucleus. Also, the onion peel cell has a hexagonal shape and lacks flagellates and pili, unlike the prokaryotic cell, which uses the to move. The onion peel is a multicellular structure, while the prokaryote is a one-celled organism.
There should always be a cover glass over the cell or tissue we are looking at. Fasten the slide with the stage clips. Move the lens carefully in order not to damage it or the slide. Do not touch or clean the lens with the fingers and try not to stain them.
It is common to all organisms because all organisms evolved from the same ancestor over a large period of time and these ancestors shared a genetic code.
