Could someone give me a website that contains actual pictures of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? I don't need diagrams, I need actual pictures.

I was also wondering if Johnny Appleseed was a real guy.

Hero"
Johnny Appleseed was born in Leominster, Massachusetts on September 26, 1774. His real name was John Chapman.

His father, Nathaniel Chapman, was one of the Minutemen who fought at Concord on April 19, 1775, and later in the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War. John's mother, Elizabeth Symond Chapman, had three children: Elizabeth, who was born in 1770, John, and Nathaniel Jr., who died shortly after birth in 1776. John's mother, who was sick from tuberculosis, died just three weeks after her third child.

Although there is no proof, it is reasonable to assume that Elizabeth's parents took care of John and his sister while their father was in the Army. Nathaniel married his second wife, Lucy Cooley of Longmeadow, Massachusetts, in 1780. With their family of ten children, Nathaniel and Lucy lived in Longmeadow for many years. Johnny and Elizabeth lived with them for at least part of that time.

There is little authentic information available about Johnny's life with the new family. However, he did start his westward journey about 1797. "Johnny Appleseed" was not a scatter of seeds many people believe. He was a practical nurseryman. He realized that there was a real need and an opportunity for service in supplying seeds and seedlings.

For the most part, moving ahead of the pioneers, Johnny started many nurseries throughout the Midwest by planting seeds which he bought from cider mills in Pennsylvania. In order to assure stability of the newly established homesteads, the law required each settler to plant fifty apple trees the first year. Because of the poor transportation that existed in the interior in those days, apples were a practical necessity in the early settlers diets.

John Chapman, or Johnny Appleseed, owned many tracts of land throughout Ohio and Indiana. He used this land to plant apple seeds, transplant seedlings and set out orchards. He sold and gave trees to the pioneer settlers. John Chapman spread religion as well as apples.

A deeply religious man, John Chapman became a self-appointed missionary for the Church of the New Jerusalem, a Christian Church based on the Biblical interpretations of Emanuel Swedenborg, a Swedish scientist and theologian. John shared his religious tracts and his Bible with the settlers who listened to him.

His love for his neighbor made him accepted as a peacemaker between the Indians and the settlers.Just short of his seventy-fifth birthday, Johnny Appleseed died on March 18,1845 in Fort Wayne, Indiana after more than 50 years of travel. His path through the East and Midwest is today dotted with many monuments to the memory of this man who fulfilled the Biblical requirements "To Do Justly, To Love Mercy and To Walk Humbly With His God."

For those interested in learning even more about John Chapman, come and tour Sholan Farms, the last remaining apple orchard in Johnny's hometown of Leominster, Massachusetts.

Get your picture taken with a statue of Johnny Appleseed, as a child with a frog in his back pocket, at the Johnny Appleseed Visitor Center, on Route 2 Westbound, between exits 35 and 34, in Lancaster. Inside of Leominster City Hall, there is also a rather large wood carved statue of John Chapman as an adult that might also be of interest.

Did you know?...John Chapman is the official "folk hero" of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts following the passage of legislation filed originally by Leominster's State Representative Mary Jane Simmons.
