This lab report will follow the format of a "slide show,"
and it will rely heavily on images that you will insert to describe various
features of cells. You should obtain images from the following
sources:
-
Internet,
-
scanned images from textbook or lab manual,
-
scanned image from a book checked out of the library
-
digital photographs taken in class.
Your professor has prepared a draft of the Lab Report/Slide
Show as a Word document. The
document is also saved under Bill Wilcox's folder next to your student
folder. The Template has tables for you to insert images and captions
into and directions.
Example: In the Introduction you are asked to
use images to illustrate the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic
cells. Each image must have a caption, of not more than three sentences,
that explains the significance of the image. You must open at least
one image in the "Paint" program and label at least 1 part of the image,
such as "nucleus, cell wall," etc. See example below:
