5 March, Class Time, Classroom2-2
We had a relatively interesting Bio practical today.
Urahara-sensei bouncedinto the lab today, and announced,
"Today we are testing for starch in leaves!"
We all stared at the teacher's bench. It was devoid of leaves of any sort.
One brave soul asked, "Urahara-sensei, where are the leaves we're going to be using?"
He blinked.
"Good point."
He ran off in the direction of the staffroom, and came back wielding a huge bonsai. The (un)lucky bonsai was then treated to a haircut. (Basically he snipped all the leaves off)
"There! We'll use these!"
Just as we were about to surge forward to claim the leaves, we heard a very angry yell coming from the lab door.
"Kisuke, you BASTARD! Give me back my bonsai at ONCE!"
It was Apache-sensei.
Anyways, after Urahara gleefully chucked the pot contaning a rather bonsai into Apache-sensei's face, we proceeded with the experiment. Along the way, we had a few casualties and mess-ups.
First, we boiled the leaves in water. (Renji heated his directly and burnt it to a crisp. He also started a mini-fire by dropping the burning leaf onto his worksheet.)
Then, we decolorized them in alcohol. (Ikkaku drank his and had to be lugged to the sick bay.)
After that, we rinsed the leaves. (Kurosaki looked at the leftover green-coloured alcohol, and dumped it on Isane's head.)
Then we tested them with iodine. (Matsumoto spilled the iodine down the front of her lab coat.)
Indeed, an exciting lesson.
