stira [4]1 year ago

Thick or dense smears less likely to provide a good smear preparation for microscopic because it will diminish the amount of light that can pass through making it difficult to visualize the morphology of single cells under the microscope. Some times the stain can't penetrate all of the bacteria.

<h3 /><h3>What is a microscopic smear?</h3>
  • A smear is a microscopic specimen.
  • A swab or loop, or the edge of another slide, is used to spread the sample to be examined, such as blood or microbial culture, thinly and unevenly across the slide.
  • Smear preparation involves spreading a small amount of sample on a slide and air drying the film before staining and microscopy.
  • The conventional method, blood film method, drop and rest method, and water-wash method are the four types of smearing methods.
  • Smear microscopy entails collecting a biological sample (typically sputum or other clinical material), fixing it thinly on a glass slide, and staining it with a dye that binds specifically to mycobacteria (making them easier to identify under a microscope).

What do you think could be done to reduce levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
damaskus [11]
We cant really take away the carbon dioxide that is already present in the atmosphere unless with very advanced technologies but we can surely reduce the production level.

The production of carbon dioxide is mostly from the burning of fossil fuels and the gas produced by factories or vehicles.

As ourselves, we may not be able to stop the factories from producing gas and burning fuel but there are still something that we can do to help a bit. For example, turn off the electrical appliances when we're not using. This can save electricity thus to reduce the burning of fossil fuels. Or we can also take public transport instead of private vehicles to reduce the amout or carbon dioxide given out.

As the government, they should set up laws to control the gas produced by factories and vehicles, such as examining the gas content.

Which of these conditions made it beneficial for aquatic plants to move onto land?
AlladinOne [14]
Not knowing what the choice of conditions is, I would say that it would be very damp conditions on land, and if the plant photosynthesises it would be good because of 'purer' sunlight. but if show what the choice of conditions are I can give you a more accurate answer (hopefully)
