Elodea Leaf Wet Mount. The cell membrane is not visible on the Elodea leaf because of its proximity to the much thicker cell wall. In order to view the membrane, you will add salt to the Elodea. Water will flow out of the Elodea cells by osmosis, shrinking the cell membrane away from the stiff cell wall (plasmolysis). Get a microscope slide.
This video shows a piece of elodea with moving chloroplasts under the microscope. This is a student-facing video for Lesson 5 of Unit 7.4. This video is part of the OpenSciEd Middle School...
Pick off an entire healthy looking Elodea leaf, with fingers or small scissors and place it on the microscope slide. Add a drop of water (hypotonic solution) and a coverslip and observe the chloroplasts (green structures) and the cell walls.
