Presentation Transcript

  1. Cell Theory and Cell Study: Tools and Techniques

  2. The Dissecting Microscope • Allows the study of large specimens. • It has two eyepieces and two objectives. • It has low power magnification and 3D quality. • It is also called a Stereo-microscope.

  3. Do Now! • Answer questions in UPCO page 54 # 1-3.

  4. The Electron Microscope • Can magnify up to 100,000x. • Cannot use live specimens. • Use a narrow beam of electrons instead of light. • Magnets are used to focus the electron beam.

  5. Do Now! • Answer questions 1-3 on pages 54,55.

  6. The Centrifuge • Instrument used to separate cell parts. • Separate parts according to density. • Material is spun around in a test tube at very high speeds. • Heaviest material is at the bottom, lightest is at the top.

  7. Do Now! • Answer question # 1 in the middle of page 55.

  8. Staining Techniques • Many parts of the cell are colorless and hard to see. • Staining techniques “color” certain cell parts so they can be more easily studied. • The most commonly used stains are Methylene Blue, and Iodine (Lugol’s Solution).

  9. Do Now! • Answer questions in UPCO page 53, #1, 2 .

  10. Magnification • Compound microscopes- each lens enlarges the image. • Total magnification is determined by multiplying the power of the eyepiece lens x the power of the objective lens. • Total magnification refers to the total amount the image is enlarged. • The unit of length used to measure specimens is the micrometer (u).

  11. Do Now! • Answer questions 1-4 on page 55,56 in UPCO. • Answer questions 1,2 in the middle of page 56.
