How has technology changed our understanding of living things?


Wayyyy back when the first microscope was invented scientists discovered a whole new world!

Today, scanning electron microscopes along with all sorts of interesting new technology are not only letting us take a closer look at cells but also to investigate what’s inside them, how they communicate, how they reproduce, mutate and more! Technology exists to develop artificial cells, grow cell tissue in laboratories and is even blurring the line between living and non living things more than ever!

Use your research skills to find a technology you are interested in that relates to cells and living things. Describe it here and share what makes it innovating and exciting! Next, explore and comment respectfully and inquisitively on your classmates’ posts 🙂

  1. The Direct Detection Camera, an advanced microscope, and an image filter are combined to capture crispier images of chemical structure, and to obtain the image quickly. As well, this technology is safer than others, so that scientists are able to examine cells without damaging them.The camera looks like a rectangular box attached a camera on its side.
