How to count algae cells in a microscope?

to count algae cells under a microscope (I am assuming it is a light microscope, not an SEM or TEM) simply look into the eyepiece and in the field of view you should be able to see green little rectangular shapes (but of course, the microscope must be in focus and you must be in a power high enough to see them). Each rectangular shape is a plant cell. A round shape is possibly an animal cell but it is more likely to be an air bubble. count each individual little rectangle in your field of view. Now, to try and count ALL of the cells in any given piece of algae would be extremely difficult, simply because the number is so large. Also it is extremely difficult, almost impossible to remember where you began counting as you try to move the slide around to count all of them. So, if you are simply trying to count the number of the cells in the field of view, it is quite simple, but trying to count all the cells would be almost impossible.


Why did it take so long after to discover that all living things are made of cells?

Probably the single biggest reason is that cells are of a size too small to be seen by the naked eye - or even with a magnifying glass. They could not be observed and studied until the invention of the microscope. According to Wikipedia:The first microscope to be developed was the optical microscope, although the original inventor is not easy to identify. An early microscope was made in 1590 in Middelburg, Netherlands. Two eyeglass makers are variously given credit: Hans Lippershey (who developed an early telescope) and Zacharias Janssen. Giovanni Faber coined the name microscope for Galileo Galilei's compound microscope in 1625so it would seem that there were no microscopes until around the 16th century.The first detailed account of the interior construction of living tissue based on the use of a microscope was not published until 1644, in Giambattista Odierna's L'occhio della mosca, or The Fly's Eye.

Van Leeuwenhoek improved a microscope and first described cells seen in cork tissue. He called them cells as they looked like little rooms, similar to ones that monks lived in.

Why are white blood cells in a stained blood smear usually counted at low power under a microscope?

Due to the limited field of vision of microscopes, it is comparatively easier to count the number of white blood cells in a stained blood smear under low power than under high magnification. Although the individual cells would be smaller and thus more difficult to count, there would be more in view at any given time.

What is range names?

In a spreadsheet, a cell or a group of cells can be given a name to make them easier to reference. So a list of sales in cells for B2 to B25, could be give the range name "Sales" which could then be used in formulas instead of the cell range reference. This makes it easier for users instead of having to remember what cells a range is made up of. The first of these two would be easier to remember and makes the formula a lot clearer:=SUM(Sales)=SUM(B2:B25)In a spreadsheet, a cell or a group of cells can be given a name to make them easier to reference.

What happens when cells are given nutrients?

When cells are given nutrients, they metabolize them, and grow and divide to create more cells. If they are not given nutrients, they die.

Does energy get released when chemicals react?

Yes, energy is given off when chemicals react. Since energy can be heat or light it is also given off.


Is a street a cell?

No. The term (in science) means a small enclosed space. It was given to cells (in plants and animals) seen under a microscope by a scientist who said that they reminded him of the small rooms that monks spent most of their time.
