Amoebas are single-celled organisms that can be observed under a microscope. To clearly see an amoeba, you typically need a magnification of at least 400x.
At this level of magnification, you can begin to distinguish the shape and movement of the amoeba as it crawls along surfaces and changes shape. If your microscope allows for higher magnifications, like 1000x, you’ll be able to see more details, such as the internal structures, which can be fascinating to observe.
Keep in mind that the quality of the microscope and the preparation of the slide also play crucial roles in how well you can view these microscopic creatures. Using a good-quality lens and proper slide techniques will enhance your viewing experience.
