Product Information
Introduce junior and senior high school students to the world of microscopy with inexpensive, unbreakable microslides. Microslides consist of a strip of film with eight photomicrographs, each reproduced exactly as you would see them through a professional microscope under ideal conditions. You can supply all your students with their own microslides. A detailed text folder is included. Viewers are available separately.
To paraphrase John Donne, &"No organism is an island&". Every plant and animal fits into its own special niche in the community of life from which it interacts with many other species. This set of slides introduces the concept of symbiosis and examines instances of mutualism, parasitism and commensalism.
