Answer:

<u>Light microscope</u>:

  • use a beam of light to produce magnified images
  • can be used to examine living cells and tissues

<u>Scanning electron microscope</u>:

  • use a beam of electrons to produce magnified images
  • can be used to examine DNA
  • can be used to examine cells

<u>Transmission electron microscope</u>:

  • use a beam of electrons to produce magnified images
  • can be used to examine DNA
  • can be used to examine cells

Explanation:

Light microscope: is a commonly used microscope also known as compound microscope. Magnifies images from 40X upto 1000X. It uses ray of visible light to produce a magnified image. The light microscope can be used to view specimen of both living and dead cells or tissues. However, it doesn't give a detailed view of a specimen like electron microscope.

Scanning electron microscope: It uses electron beam as an illuminating source. It has a much higher resolving power than light microscope because it uses electrons instead of light. It magnifies object upto 500000 times the actual size. Internal structures can also be viewed. However, only dead specimen can be used because the beam of electrons can kill the cells. They are of two types:

  1. <u>Scanning electron microscope(SEM): </u>an electron beam passes over the specimen's surface and displaces electrons which are then focused on  a screen to form an image. Images appear in 3-D
  2. <u>Transmission electron microscope: </u>electromagnets magnify the image by passing beam of electrons through a thin specimen. Images appear in 2-D

Why is the northern hemisphere warmer in the summer than in the winter paragraph plz
Alexus [3.1K]
The northern hemisphere is warmer in the summer than the winter because the northern hemisphere are pointing toward the sun. Because of this the rays hit us more directly making is hotter. So during the winter when the northern hemisphere is not pointing toward us, it makes is colder. It also depends on the tilt of the axis. When it is more direct it makes the temperature hotter.

Why might it be beneficial for the brain to be connected to the contralateral side of the body?
kondor19780726 [428]
I think it is beneficial for the brain to be connected to the contralateral side of the body because of the position and connection to the brain that our eyes have. Because light from the right visual fields strikes the left side of the eye and light from the left side strikes the right side of the eye, the connections allow visual information from both sides of the body to reach the brain.
