3. Observe the slide of blood. Scan around to find an area where you can see individual cells, including at least one white blood cell. White blood cells, though few in number relative to red blood cells, are obvious because they are the ones with darkly staining nuclei. Mature red blood cells (the kind circulating in your vascular system) do not have nuclei at all. > Describe what you see at 400X total magnification: 7

Description
Human blood cells stained with Wright's stain. Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are most
numerous and stain pink. White blood cells (leukocytes) are larger with darkly-stained
nuclei. Platelets are much smaller than erythrocytes and stain pink.
