Post-lab assignments: Based on the procedures conducted in lab, write a results and discussion section following the style and content of a scientific paper. Your assignment should be typed, double-spaced with 1-inch margins, bold section headings, and carefully proofread. Follow your instructor’s guidelines for submission of this assignment, due the week of September 13, 2016.Results: This section consists of a detailed description of your results in written and graphical form. The text of the results section should be 1-2 pages in length, with figures attached at the end of the complete assignment. The text should contain descriptions of cell shape, abundance, appearance of organelles, and any other observations that are worthy of reporting. Figures must have figure numbers, clearly labeled axes, and detailed legends/captions to describe how the results were generated (including microscope settings). Refer to specific figure numbers as you describe the data in this section. Please adhere to the following guidelines for data presentation:Figure 1. Representative image from the onion root tip. This image can be carefully drawn by hand or generated using a computer drawing program. Label parts of the cells and structures of the root tissue in your drawing. Identify cells at distinct stages of mitosis that are evident. Your figure legend must contain details of the specimen and the microscope settings (total magnification, brightfield / phase contrast, and any stain used).Figure 2. Representative image from the epithelial tissue smear. This image can be carefully drawn by hand or generated using a computer drawing program. Label parts of the cells that are evident. Your figure legend must contain details of the specimen and the microscope settings (total magnification, brightfield / phase contrast, and any stain used).Discussion: This section contains a discussion / interpretation of your results and should be 0.5 – 1pg in length. Describe how adjustments to the microscope affected your images. Indicate which settings produced the most useful images. Discuss any shortcomings / problems with your examination of these specimens and suggest ways in which the imaging could be improved. Finally, include a study from the literature that also used microscopy to observe epithelial cells. Compare the type(s) of microscopy used in that study to what was conducted in the lab. Remember to cite the study following the guidelines in the appendix of the lab manual.References: Provide complete citation information for the epithelial cell study you cited in the discussion section following the guidelines in the appendix of the lab manual.APPENDIX C: Citation FormatHow do I cite literature in the text of the paper?Use the author-year (not MLA) format in which the author\’s last name is given followedby the year of publication. Note the placement of the comma between the names and theyear when both are in parentheses. Moreover, note that the format of the reference as itappears in the text changes depending upon whether there are one, two or three or moreauthors on the paper.
