Been learning to use my new microscope now it's setup in amore dedicated area. So lets have some fun and see if one of you can guess what it is. Correct answer gets 210 sats.

Algae?

Nope, good try as it does have something to do with photosynthesis.

So the green is the original color

cucumber peel?

Is it a chloroplast?

Nope, its bigger than that but it is present on a leaf.

Stomata?

Yes but you were just beaten to it perhaps I will do another one at some point though.

That's fine. I just wanted to play.

Looking forward to more pictures, game or not. You make me want a microscope

My immediate thought was stoma.

Yeah you got it!

😂 👍🏼 My Biology degree was not wasted after all! Check out the spiracles found on many insects / arthropods - always struck me as morphologically similar to the stomata on leaves etc.

Still haven't earned any money from my degree so you way ahead of me now 😂. I will have to have a look spiracles too thanks for the suggestion

😂 I made a some fiat for a while (linked with electron microscopy) then moved on to other things.

Sounds pretty cool doing things with an electron microscope though :)

It was cool (kinda miss it) and I still maintain an interest in the field. All about the sample prep, a quality vacuum and the energy / focus of the electron beam.

I will zap you when I have worked out how to use coracle :D

I gave up luckily primal is working better again!

Thanks for the sats! ⚡️

Your welcome, it was a stoma from banana plant leaf if your interested I guess they are bigger in tropical plants.

Cool! - always interested whenever I see an image from a microscope.

Wish i knew.
