Microscopy, Mitosis, and Motility Lab Discussion Questions
In the Microscopy, Mitosis, and Motility lab, the class used the Compound Microscope. The Compound Microscope helped examine the prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, observe the different stages of mitosis, and compare modes of motility used by protists. The light compound microscope works with the aid of lenses such as the eyepiece. These lenses help keep the focus of the light on the eye.
