This is a simple experiment that you need:


Lettuce


Iodine (or something that have iodine)


Water from river or rain


Microscope


1. Place water and small pieces of lettuce in a bottle and wait a lot of days.



2. If you can see some paramecium in the water (obviously using the microscope) make a slide of the water and the iodine



3. The hardest part is finding the paramecium that creates crystals around it (not really are crystals)


the crystals are protecting the paramecium and making a cool effect


remeber posting if the experiment worked (it can fail sometimes)
