Microscopes and Microscopy Introduction The purpose for including a lab on microscopy in his course is because it is a very important tool in making detailed observations. This lab helps the average person realize that there is much more to things than what you see with the naked eye. In the field of human biology microscopes are very important for many reasons. In the late 1500’s a scientist named Zacharias Janssen created the first microscope of it kind and now we have several microscopes

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

Introduction Microscopes have brought to light a new realm of information that originally laid dormant and invisible to the naked eye. It has enhanced biology and brought forth great advancements into the study of living organisms. Many discoveries have been achieved through the microscope. One of the major ones is the cell theory that we have talked about in this chapter. Having a microscope enables us to study even the smallest of details in organisms and allows us to conduct research. Another

obesity percentages. Sucrose is the leading added sweetener in in the manufacture of foods in the Unites States and is the biggest source of fructose. Sucrose and high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) are metabolized identically and react the same way to insulin‚ leptin and ghrelin. Sucrose is indifferent from HFCS in causing obesity. Compared to glucose‚ sucrose is extracted directly from the liver while glucose goes directly to the bloodstream causing larger sugar spikes. HFCS and sucrose have an identical
