Step One - Obtain a clean microscope slide.
Step Two - Place a drop of liquid on the slide. This is the “wet” part of the wet mount. The liquid used depends on the type of cell being viewed:
If examining a plant cell, tap water can be used.
If examining an animal cell, physiological saline (or contact lens solution) must be used, because if plain water is used, the cell will explode from osmotic pressure. Unlike plant cells and bacteria, animal cells have no cell wall to structurally support them.
Step Three - Obtain the specimen to be used. Some introductory biology classics for viewing include:
Skin of an onion bulb: In order to view the cells, a very thin layer of skin must be obtained. Take a single layer of onion and bend it towards the shiny side. After it snaps, pull gently, and a transparent layer of skin, similar to Scotch tape, will appear.
Elodea leaf: Elodea leaves are two cell layers thick. The cells in one layer are smaller than the cells in the other, so elodea leaves can be used to better understand a microscope's depth of field.
Cheek cells: Human epithelial cells can be obtained by gently rubbing a toothpick on the inside of the mouth, and then swirling the toothpick in the physiological saline on the slide.
Pond water: Obtaining some water from a pond makes wet mount preparation a breeze, since the water and the specimens are both included.
Hope this helps
Answer:
Because you need to scrub them with soap first.
Explanation:
The reason is that if you don't and wash with water, the cooking utensils will stay greasy; that is why you need to scrub and then wash.
Answer:
as the question does not contains image i have already mentioned the link to image in ask for detail section therefore i will answer according to that image.
the answer is "B"
Explanation:
Because before crossing over but after duplication both chromosomes will have same alleles as GgDd therefore according to the image the answer will be option "B". as this option showed duplicated chromosomes.
First one is partial second is an annular eclipse third is an total eclipse
It would be the 3rd option: Reaction to a stimulus helps maintain homeostasis.
