Gizmo Warm-up
In the Cell Types Gizmo, you will use a light microscope to compare and contrast
different samples. On the LANDSCAPE tab, click on the Elodea leaf. (Turn on Show all
samples if you can’t find it.) Switch to the MICROSCOPE tab to observe the sample as it
would appear under the microscope. By default, this microscope is using 40x
magnification.
1. Drag the Coarse focus slider until the sample is focused as well as possible. Then, improve the focus
with the Fine focus slider. What do you see?
I see a pattern of cells.
2. Select the 400x magnification. If necessary, adjust the fine focus. Now, what do you see?
I see the individual chloroplasts, the cell walls, nuclei, the cytoplasms (the part outside of
the nuclei), and the vacuoles.
