In Mrs. Flores' freshman Biology classes, students recently delved into the intricate concepts of osmosis and diffusion through a practical lab experiment. The focus of their investigation was an ordinary onion. Equipped with microscopes, students meticulously observed the onion cells as they underwent changes over time in an iodine solution. Applying their knowledge of glucose and starch, they analyzed the cellular transformations with a scientific eye. This experiment served as a valuable opportunity for students to gain a deeper understanding of fundamental biological processes and appreciate the significance of microscopic exploration. Mrs. Flores' class demonstrated that even the simplest of ingredients can reveal profound insights when viewed through the lens of scientific investigation.
