pretty awesome! reminds me of the pondwater lab i did this year but nothing like this! You can check out my video of some organisms under the microscope from some pondwater :) btw How did you film this so well? It's pretty well done :)

virions are a lot smaller than bacterias. it's basically just a nucleic acid in a protein capsule, a bacteria is a whole procaryotic cell - usually ranges from 0.1 to hundreds of micrometers, the biggest bacteria known to man is almost a milimeter big (can be seen with eyes)

lol it looks like the navy

very interesting
-
ouch. i will not ask anymore questions, not even about the hot glue

and viruses are usually smaller than bacteria, you can do the same thing with pollen. :D no more questions, i didn't have a good day when i typed this... an accident with hot glue...

how they solve crimes? they are unique, if a dead body is thrown into a river, usually one in a remote area, if anyone has the same organisms on their clothes-from the splash of the body hitting the surface of the water as the organisms at the site the body has been dumped, it is very likely that they are the murderer(s),

interesting, how do they help solve crimes? also how big would a virus be in comparision to them?

No - it's called a navicula, it's a diatom. (Navicula actually means 'small ship').

what power of x do you use to see this, and what substance is it?

I would think it's a 40x objective, from memory, looking at water from a garden pond.

i'd agree that it is 40x as i have used a 40x, but in my research of all kinds of water, this takes the cake as being the most facinating!

The water had probably been kept in a jar for a few days after taking it from the pond, usually bacteria multiply rapidly when the water is not fresh from the pond.
