This page gives you an opportunity to practice seeing through a microscope.  Each of the figures below is an example of from the slides we study in class.  Give the page time to load before starting your microscope study.  Move the slider bar in each image to focus the image.  Things come in and out of focus in a three dimensional fashion much like the images we see in the lab.
