Answer;

-Chitin is a structural carbohydrate that forms their exoskeleton


Explanation;

-Chitin is the main component in the exoskeletons of arthropods and crustaceans and is also in the cell walls of fungi.

-It is a linear long chain polymer consisting of repeated units of N-acetyl-glucosamine.

-The main function of the chitin-containing exoskeleton is to keep the inner soft tissue safe from any sort of injury and also prevents the delicate tissues from drying (acts as a water tight barrier against dehydration).

Most cells __ are porous to water and other materials but strong enough to support and protect cells..
likoan [24]
Cell walls are thicker than cell membranes, and can therefore support the cell well. They keep a strong boundary for the protection of the cell, but can let water and some nutrients through to nourish and power the cell. Hope this helps! :)

Which is a difference between a compound light microscope and a transmission electron microscope? A.The compound light microscop
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

While a light microscope uses light to illuminate specimens and glass lenses to magnify images, an electron microscope uses a beam of electrons to illuminate specimens and magnetic lenses to magnify images. The resolution (the level of image detailing) is the main difference between these two microscopes.

A compound light microscope is a microscope with more than one lens and its own light source. In this type of microscope, there are ocular lenses in the binocular eyepieces and objective lenses in a rotating nose piece closer to the specimen.
