(a)  

7.

What steps should a student follow to calculate the actual size of each bacterial cell?

a)

Step 1: Calculate the magnification by measuring the scale bar image ÷ actual size

Step 2: Measure image of bacterial cell ÷ magnification

b)

Step 1: Calculate the magnification by measuring the scale bar image x actual size

Step 2: Measure image of bacterial cell ÷ magnification
