Cell Biologist

                                  Scientists who study cells

    They use microscopes to magnify cells to seem larger

  They work in laboratories and analyze data to study:

                      a) How cells work inside the body.
                              b) How cells respond.

c) Some work with doctors to watch how cells repair the body parts or
                         how cells respond to medicines.

    d) Other work in agriculture to study how plant cells respond to
                               environmental factors.

       Staining Cells                             Cells in 3D

Stains (dyes) are used to add color       3D Microscope shows the cell in 3D
and make the cell's structures more
                                             "top, sides and layers of a cell".
       visible as it is colorless.       Computer puts the layers together and
                                          colors are added to the formed image.
Some stains are used to highlight 1
   part as methylene blue to see               It able them learn more about
                nucleus.                 cell components and how cells divide.
                                         Doctors can treat cancer that is caused

                                                     by quick divisions.
