I would probably drink a small amount of ocean water in 20 monute intervals, to not over dehydrate myself. This would probably give me enough time to go find other sources of water on the island (eg. coconuts) tp get clean water. In my opinion, this would be a better option than drinking contaminated fresh water. There is a higher risk of getting infected by the bacteria in the water, which would be why its better to take the contaminated fresh water only as a last resort option.

I'm not really sure what I just typed but hopefully it makes some kind of sense to you☺

For my opinion I will drink a contaminated fresh water.But first I will filter the water with clean towel or maybe with clean sock.The reason why I not choose sea water because sea water is dangerous for human because it contain hight amount of salt(to much sodium can kill us).Human kidney can only produce salty urine lesser than salty sea water.

After getting the slide and microscope ready, Stella is eager to see the microscopic pond water specimen! She crouches around he
larisa86 [58]

Copied but correct answer.

Answer: C (She hasn't fastened the slide to the stage

Explanation:

In Microscopy even if the slide is not yet in focus,she will be able to see part of the slide which may appear as transparent image.Therefore this is a wrong answer.

If the microscope is not plugged it light can not come up.

If there are no specimen on the slide,the slide will still as transparent image at the focus.

No doubt Stella forgot to fasten the slide to the stage.,therefore the specimen on the slide was not in focus of the objective lens,rather she was focusing on the stage only,hence the visible white light.
