    Conclusion

    What have you learned?

    Reflect on what you observed today in your microscope and the images provided, along with what you know about the organisms’ life cycles. Relate what you observed of their structures, size, life stages, etc., to what you know about their ability to cause disease or what you think might help them survive and their potential for causing disease.
