A student sees some moss and collects a sample, then views it under the microscope. Which claim is most likely supported by the student's observation? (Read each choice carefully!)

• The student can learn more about the cells of

  the moss using a microscope because cells are

  only visible when they are magnified.

• The student can learn more about the cells of

  the moss by observing it on the sidewalk

  because cells are only found in living plants.

• The student can learn more about the cells of

  the moss using a microscope because the entire

  plant is able to be viewed at one time.

• The student can learn more about the cells of

  the moss by observing it on the sidewalk

  because cells are only visible as part of the

  whole plant.
