Question

To observe T. spathacea cells, a sharp blade was used to peel off a thin portion of the lower epidermis
of the leaf and was placed on a clean glass slide. One to two drops of 0.01 M NaCl solution was added and a coverslip was placed. The procedure was repeated using 0.30 M NaCl. The leaves were examined under LPO and HPO. A portion with only a single layer of cells was observed. Cells under HPO are shown in your worksheet. Give a short description of the T. spathacea leaf cells in 0.01 M and 0.30 M NaCl solutions. In the figures, label the cell wall, vacuole and tonoplast. Be sure to show the differences between the two leaves and describe them. Notice if the anthocyanin moved out of the vacuole.
