    introduction of the microscope as a tool for the biologist brought about a complete reappraisal of the micro- composition of biological tissues‚ organisms and cells. In the infancy of its application to organic materials‚ it was the implement of anatomists and histologists in particular‚ where previously unimagined structures in cells were revealed. More recent developments in biological specimen preparation have come from biochemists and physicists who have used the microscope to examine cells and tissue

    OBSERVING PLASMOLYSIS IN ONION CELLS (_ALLIUM CEPA_) I. INTRODUCTION Plasmolysis is the process in plant cells in which the cytoplasm is separated from the cell wall as a result of water loss through osmosis. Osmosis is a type of passive transport involving movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane. 1.

    Microscopes were invented in the 1600s. Robert Hooke first looked at a thin slice of cork in 1665; he saw "a lot of little boxes." These little boxes first reminded of the little rooms monks lived in‚ so he called them cells. Hooke observed the same pattern in the stems and roots of carrots and other plants. What Hooke still did not know‚ however‚ was that cells are the basic units of living things. Ten years later‚ the Dutch scientist Anton van Leeuwenhoek focused a microscope on what seemed to

    Asses the impact of the development of the electron microscope on our understanding of the cell and it’s role in cell theory. Since the invention of the electron microscope in 1928 scientists have been able to study the ultrastructure of cells‚ that is‚ parts smaller than what can be seen with a light microscope‚ otherwise known as organelles and their functions. Light microscopes had been developed to a point where the quality of the lenses was not limiting the detail in the image‚ the main
