Annotation -
The course provides training in the methods of light and fluorescence microscopy, good laboratory practice and rules governing organization of a biological experiment. The course objectives further include: inspection of structure of plant and animal cells and tissues, microscopy and cytochemistry of cellular processes, and analysis of chromosomal basis of heredity.

Aim of the course -

Students will be able to:

Describe principles the light and fluorescence microscopy lie in and will be knowledgeable in principal parameters of a light microscope.

Independently prepare microscope specimens, inspect them through the light and fluorescence microscopy, organize an experiment and properly record and interpret the observations.

Better understand organization of the cell, plant and animal tissues, mitosis and chromosomal basis of heredity, which were all in theory subjects of preceding Biology I course.
