                                                                                                                RICE STRAW
                                                                                                               SUGAR CANE




We had the chance to go to the Nature lab and look the materials trough the microscope.
These are some pictures I took, the materials that interested me the most are the rice hull and the bagasse.
The reasons why I was surprise by the rice hull are: the external surface is covered by an interesting texture that I didn’t notice before, the other reason is that the two parts that contain the rice grain are different, we can divided them in male and female part, the male part has in the bottom part a different conformation that I called the holder.
Regarding the bagasse it is really interesting to notice that there are still some crystal of sugar that give to the bagasse a shining aspect.
