THE MICROSCOPE Much of the laboratory work in General Botany I involves the study of minute structures which are invisible of poorly seen with the naked eye. This requires the use of the microscope, the primary purpose of which is to magnify or greatly enlarge the image of the objects or organisms so their detailed structures may be studied. For our purposes, the monocular compound microscope will be used. It is an optical instrument with two lens systems: the objectives and the eyepiece or ocular

their roots provide anchorage and absorb water and mineral nutrients from the soil. Above ground, plants have leaves that obtain CO2 from the air and light from the sun, which enable them to perform photosynthesis. To support the plant body, the cell walls of some plant tissues including xylem, are thickened and reinforced by a chemical called lignin. For reproduction In all plants, the fertilized egg develops into an embryo while attached to and nourished by the parent plant. For dispersal, land plants

Process? How does it work? In shredder, the surface area of apple and cirtrus peel are increased to provide a bigger yield of pectin production. After that step, extraction is continuously done under acidic condition, the glycosidic linkages in cell wall polysaccharides including pectin are hydrolyzed. Moreover, hydrolysis of polygalacturonic acid occurred faster than neutral polysaccharides. Therefore, pectin can be extracted by HCl solution (acidic environment for hydrolysis). For pectin collection

and Plant cells are both eukaryotic cells which means there not very different in structure, there are a few differences between them though. One of the first differences between a plant and animal cell is that a plant cell has a cell wall. Animals don’t have a cell wall because they have only cell membranes made up of phospholipid bilayers and proteins which protects and holds together the cell and its part. A second difference between an animal and a plant cell is that plant cells have chloroplast
