We all participated in a foldscope workshop conducted by our biology teacher. It is realy exciting to see organism under foldscope. Preparing the slide was interesting . We took out metathorarcic leg of an adult cockroach . The picture shows the trochanter (a triangular short rod-like) and the femur (long&spiny) parts of leg.
