 Cell Size and ScaleThe smallest objects that the unaided human eye can see are about 0.1 mm long. That means that under the right conditions, you might be able to see an ameoba proteus, a human egg, and a paramecium without using magnification. A magnifying glass can help you to see them more clearly, but they will still look tiny. |  BiocanvasAt Biocanvas, we think science is beautiful, and we think you should think so, too.
