• Suitable for secondary and post-16 biology classes

• Slides feature a variety of specimens, including onion root tips, Lilium anthers and ovaries, frog and chicken embryos, and human chromosomes

• Each slide is clearly labelled for easy identification

• Supplied in a protective case for safe storage and organisation
