From Hydra budding to sea urchin development
The set brings several reproductive topics together in one collection. Hydra preparations cover budding and male and female reproductive organs, while the Ascaris specimens allow comparison of male and female sections through the reproductive region.
Cyclops with egg sacs, an Ascaris uterus containing embryos and dividing sea urchin eggs add developmental specimens to the collection. Grasshopper testis preparations and a honey bee queen ovary extend the selection to insect reproductive organs.
All specimens are already prepared, so there is no need to collect organisms or cut sections. To begin observation, place the selected slide on the microscope stage and start at the lowest magnification before moving on to finer details.
