The experiments come in three types: microscope labs, dissection labs, and household labs. Household labs use only common household equipment. The microscope labs, however, require a microscope and several prepared and blank slides, while the dissection labs require an additional dissection kit with specimens.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend that students do every assignment in the textbook because they are each created to add value to the textual knowledge your student is gaining.
