    Any processes in the cell, or movement of the cells.

    Depends on the microscope. Probably won't see ribosomes if it's a high school light microscope. But "an up to date microscope" could be a really high power scope, a electron microscope. I'd assume it was a light microscope you'd find in a high school lab. In that case, there's lots you wouldn't see--cytoskeleton. It would make more sense to ask what you CAN see.

    I've seen this question over and over. I am a biologist, worked in labs for years, have no idea what the person who wrote the question is getting at. There's some "right" answer.
