Algae Lab

What I liked about the algae lab was that I actually got to see firsthand what the pollutants looked like, and even some of the organisms as well. Instead of having to just watch some video, I actually got to see them through a microscope. It was pretty hard to keep track of some of the organisms though, because they were zooming across the sample, and you would have to constantly be moving the slide or dish to catch up with them. The different types of algae were much harder to find in the samples than the organisms, as the algae was much smaller and not moving as much.
