INTRODUCTIONLaboratory drawings are made to learn how to observe and record things accurately. Artistic ability is not required to make careful drawings of structures you observe under the microscope.Simple line drawings are powerful self-teaching aids that will help you to learn and remember the essential structural relation of cells and tissues.Begin by drawing an outline of the microscope field section. Then select areas of special interest, or a representative area, and complete it in detail showing particular structures or cellular organization, including expanded scale if necessary. All significant structures must be labeled in print.II. SUGGESTIONSA.
