Difference between the Transmission Electron Microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope
TEM - structures inside the cell
SEM - cell's surface
It is the liquid part of the cell
Cytosol
Also known as the cell within the cell

Scenario: During a biology lesson, students are shown a cell with a prominent Golgi apparatus and numerous vesicles.
Question: What does this suggest about the cell's activities, and what functions might be occurring at a high rate?
The prominent Golgi apparatus and many vesicles suggest the cell is very active in modifying, packaging, and transporting substances.

I made a lens so fine, I could see so small, tiny creatures swam, in water I did call. I was the first to view the world unseen, and saw life where no one had ever been. Who am I?

Scenario: You are studying cells under a microscope and see a cell with half the number of chromosomes compared to the parent cell.
Question: What type of cell division likely produced these cells, and why is this reduction in chromosome number necessary?
The type of cell division that likely produced these cells is meiosis. Without the reduction, the chromosome number would double with each generation, leading to genetic instability.
