Making/examine onion cell slide.

Equipment - Knife, Onion, Forceps, Iodine, cutting board, microscope, cover slip and slide 

Today I was in a group of 3 and our science teacher told us what to do.

First we got an Onion, cutting board and a knife to cut an onion and then we used a forceps to peel the onion peel inside the onion not outside to get what we want so we can see an onion cell.

Then we use a slip to put an onion peel on and went to our science teacher to do the rest. She put on Iodine and a cover slip on ours and went to a Microscope, as we made it to our microscope we couldn't see anything at first so we got some help then we could see what they would call "a beauty"  

I seen better things but as always at least we did something for the first time. This is something I might not do in the future but something I might enjoy.
