The lab that I did was elodea leaf lab, where me and my partners have to gets a blank glass, take a little leaf out of the water, and put a drop of its water into the glass before putting the lid on. After carefully observed the leaf by using the x65 lens, we puts a drop of salt into the leaf and closed the lid to see how the chloroplasts changed under the microscope. We were basically analyzing the changing of the chloroplasts shape after we puts the salt solution into the elodea leaf. The purpose of our lab was to see how salt solution can affect the elodea leaf cell. By looking at the the leaf cell, we were looking for the affection of the chloroplasts after we put the salt solution, and before putting it in, to see the different in between.
