yourgenome Short 1 months ago

Description

🔬 Ever looked down a microscope and had absolutely no idea what you’re seeing?

🔬🪱 Join Divenita as she explores a real earthworm histology slide under the microscope.

Using stained earthworm tissue, Divenita explains how scientists:

- Orient themselves on a microscope slide
- Use different objective lenses and magnifications
- Identify tissue structures like skin and muscle
- Interpret staining colours in histology
- Record observations during microscopy work

You’ll also learn why histology samples are stained in bright colours, and how those dyes help reveal tiny structures inside tissues and cells.

Perfect for:

- A-Level Biology revision
- Microscopy practicals
- Histology basics
- GCSE & university biology students
- Anyone learning microscope skills

Short. Visual. Real lab science from the Wellcome Sanger Institute.
