6. FIGURE 1.5. Human blood cells viewed by bright-field (A) and phasecontrast (B) light microscopy. Thin extensions of the white blood cell are clear in the phase contrast image but invisible in the bright field image. (C) and (D) are phase contrast images acquired 2 and 5 minutes after addition of a formyl methionine peptide (see page 128). The white blood cell is activated and begins crawling to the right.

12. FIGURE 1.10. The tree of life. The diagram shows the currently accepted view of how the different types of organism arose from a common ancestor. Many minor groups have been omitted. Distance up the page should not be taken as indicating complexity or how ‘‘advanced’’ the organisms are. All organisms living today represent lineages that have had the same amount of time to evolve and change from the last universal common ancestor.
