In this lab I used a microscope to view tiny things on a much larger scale. I also took a quiz over the usage of a microscope and got a smiley face on it :).
The most appealing thing I chose to view was a pine needle. I viewed it at many variable zoom settings. However, when I changed the view to 100 and focused it and this is what I saw.
This is edging of the pine needle at 100 times view. The colored parts are nuclei and the darker colored parts are even larger and thicker nuclei. Its not viewed here but there are colorless nuclei which are drained and taken to the darker nuclei.
