PROBLEM: What are the characteristics of a plant cell?

PREDICTION:

MATERIALS: Microscopes, Elodea Plant, Onion, Cork, Medicine Droppers, Stain, Prepared and Clean Microscope Slides

PROCEDURE: Observe and listen carefully to your lab instructor as you look at the microscope slides of elodea, onion, and cork cells. Illustrate what you see and label all parts of the cells (cell wall, chloroplasts, vacuole, nucleus, and starch grains).

CONCLUSIONS:

Are all plant cells the same?

What are the major differences between the Elodea, Onion, and Cork cells?
