Here’s something you don’t see every day. A microscope slide of a five day old chicken embryo! Possibly the strangest find in my schools collection!

Transection of lungs showing the spongy nature of the lung tissue. The gaps are alveoli which increase the surface of the lungs for gas exchange. The capillaries are stuffed with red blood cells too!

This is a slide from the testes of newts! Absolutely stunning patterns and staining colours! Can anyone explain what exactly I’m seeing? Doesn’t look like mitosis or meiosis to me...?

A selection of microscope slides from the last couple of minutes months. Absolute stunning colours and structures all with just a light microscope!

Easy to see chloroplasts, the site of photosynthesis, in Elodea sp., waterweeds. Native to North and South America, it is commonly grown in classrooms but can be invasive.

Beautiful lung transection under the microscope! Erythrocytes (red blood cells) showing their distinctive biconcave shape to increase surface area to volume ratio for oxygen diffusion, and flexibility to get through capillaries!

A transection of lungs slide showing the bronchioles. Stunning contrast of the red and blue stains! The infolding increases surface area for the gas exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.

The trichomes of Saintpaulia sp., African violet, looking marvellous under the microscope! Under a higher magnification, easy to see plant cells. A much less smelly practical than with onion cells!

Tradescantia zebrina is the plant you want for stomata. More stomata stuff at https://t.co/TmlJGhcW1t #PlantsAreCool #Botany #BiologyisAwesome #MicroscopeScience
Stunning images of the stomata of Tradescantia leaves! Amazingly easy to see, even the chloroplasts are visible!

Meiosis in lily anthers; the prophase pairing of homologous chromosomes and metaphase spindle formation, lit up in pink!

Beautiful stained-glass window effect of Tilia root transection. Also showing the first growth ring and the differences in cell arrangement.

The squashed root tip of Allium, onion, at x10, x40 and x100 magnification
#MicroscopeScience #BiologyIsAwesome #PlantsAreCool
Mitosis frozen in action in these root tip slides. Prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase proceeding before your eyes!

Here's just one example of Daphnia, water fleas, from my students!

A slide showing the infection of Cuscuta sp., dodder, into a host plant! Truly amazing! Folk names for this are marvellous: wizards net, hellbine, devils guts, angel hair and more!
