because there are small "hairs" on it that cant absorb water. the plant doesnt absorb water through its leaves, so it just rolls it off instead of soaking it in. i dont know what the hairs actually are, they just look like hairs from up really close
A drop of water is used to create a thin film of liquid on the slide, which helps to spread and suspend the specimen evenly for viewing under the microscope. It also prevents the specimen from drying out during observation.
Gabi leaves are waterproof due to the waxy coating on their surface, which helps repel water and prevent it from being absorbed into the leaf tissues. This waxy layer acts as a barrier, allowing water to bead up and roll off the leaf surface, keeping the leaf dry.
A biologist ground up some plant leaf cells and then prepare a wet slide. Then they add the plant leaf cells to the slide.
A oak leaf would make a poor wet mount slide as does not allow the light to pass through making the slide difficult to read. An onion leaf makes a better wet mount as light easily passes through the cells making the slide very clear and easy to read.
Placing a leaf in distilled water would allow water to enter the leaf through osmosis, leading to an increase in turgor pressure within the cells. This influx of water could cause the leaf to become turgid and firm.
The leaf has a wax coating, so water will roll off or the leaf would float on the water.
Most leaves are coated in a waxy, waterproof substance that renders them hydrophobic, meaning that they repel water. Some leaves go even further with small bumps called papillae, too small to be seen by the naked eye. The papillae effectively trap bubbles of air, which the water can not displace, and that causes the water to roll off without making contact with the leaf. Think of it kind of like a hovercraft, which uses a pocked of contained air to keep itself above the water, but in reverse.
94 grand prix does not have leaf springs <--- that answer is wrong, I know there is a mono leaf. Take the rear spindles off on both sides and unbolt the leaf then slide it out of the spindles piece of cake...
To prepare a temporary mount of a leaf peel to show stomata, you would need to carefully peel off a thin, transparent layer of the leaf. Place the peel on a glass slide and add a drop of water to ensure the peel remains hydrated. Finally, gently place a coverslip over the peel and view it under a microscope to observe the stomata.
A wet mount slide is typically used to view an Elodea leaf under a microscope. This type of slide allows the leaf to remain in a hydrated state, which is important for observing its cellular structure and processes.
because the leaf is non polar or Because the leaf is coated in lipid molecules
Because the oxygen in water and peroxide in alcohol mix and tiny bubbles form and when they pop air comes out that makes the leaf dry
Bit of spit and a rub
Yes, friction is useful on a slide because it helps to slow you down and prevent you from sliding too quickly or uncontrollably. It also provides enough grip for you to stay on the slide without slipping off.
i think u have to put aftershave under them then slide off or try water m8
They just slide in the salt ( SEA salt) water and slide out. they also clean them selves by rubbing all the dirt off them.
Who invented the water slide?
