Before the 1800s
How large are things really?
 Microscopic objects are
meassured in:
 μm = 10-3 mm
 Nm = 10-6 mm
(1000 μm =1mm)
 Not visible with a naked
eye.
 Eye resolution is 0,2
mm
 If two objects are
separated by a smaller
distance, we will see
them as one.
Exercise 1:
If an object meassures 1
mm, how many
micrometers does it
meassure? And how
many nanometers?
Exercise 2: Calculating sizes
Paramecium caudatum magnified 300 times
3.6 cm
What is the size of the
paramecium?
Could we see it with
our naked eye?
Average size
Choosing samples to measure Using a scale

  1. By the beginning of the XIX century scientists already described living organisms as being organized in different levels. systems, organs, tissues and an inferior level. The last level of organization was apparently disorganized or shapeless appearance.
