1 Biology 1, Philippine Science High School-Main Campus Laboratory Activity # 2: PLANT AND ANIMAL TISSUES Objectives 1. To review simple microscopy techniques used in studying cells. 2. To identify tissues specific to plant cells. 3. To identify tissues specific to animal cells. 4. To relate structure and function at the tissue and cellular levels in plants and animals. Materials (to be provided by the teacher) compound light microscope prepared slides clear plastic ruler Methods ESTIMATING CELL SIZE AND CALCULATING MAGNIFICATION 1. Fill in the first column of Table 1 on your data sheet using the formula for determining magnification: Total magnification = objective lens magnification x ocular lens magnification 2. Take a clear plastic ruler and examine the millimeter scale under the scanning objective lens. Place the center of one of the scale marks along the edge of the field as shown in Figure Count the whole number of millimeter spaces. If there is part of a space, estimate (in decimals) the size of the millimeter portion that shows. Record the field diameter in millimeters in the second column of data table Convert the field diameter for into micrometers and record this number in the third column of data table 1. (1 m = 1/1000th mm OR move the decimal point three spaces to the right) 5. Repeat steps 2-4 using the low-power objective (). 6. Calculate the field diameter for the high-power objective () by using the following formula: ( field diameter)( magnification) = ( field diameter) ( magnification) and record the results for the in data table 1. DO NOT USE THE RULER FOR! PLANT TISSUE 1 1. Obtain a prepared slide with longitudinal sections of onion root (Allium cepa, l.s.). 2. Make a rough sketch of the tip of the organ. 3. Compare the length of the cells from the tip going upwards. What do you notice? 4. Focus on cells near the tip with large nuclei. What kind of tissue is shown here? What is it for? 5. Count the number the cells that span the field diameter of and estimate the cell size using the formula below. Show your calculations in the portion below your drawings and box your final answer. cell size = field diameter/number of cells spanning the field diameter TYPES OF TISSUES Examine the prepared slides of the different kinds of plant and animal tissues. Follow the instructions for each station, sketch the specimens, and answer the questions that follow.

What is the function of the extensions of the cells focused? 8 (Human bone, x.s. and l.s.) Focus on the individual cells and draw. What is the function of the canals around each cell? What specific type of tissue is this? What is it for? What materials are deposited around the structures surrounding the small circles? Why are they important? 9 (Animal blood smears) Draw the individual cells. Identify the free biconcave disc-like cells. What type of tissue is this? What is its function? 10 (Animal striated muscle., l.s.) Focus on the fiber-like structures. Draw. Describe the placement of the nuclei and count the # of nuclei per cell.
