Name one disadvantage of light microscopes

Biology
2 answers:
Vesna [10]3 years ago
7 0

Limitations
Light microscopes can magnify specimens or objects up to fifteen hundred times their actual size. This is amazing if you consider objects naturally visible to the eyes. But when you consider microscopic specimens then the magnification is not very impressive. Also the depth of field is confined. For very specific observations of elements or specimens that are smaller than 0.275 microns or smaller than half the wavelength of white light require electron microscope.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer/Explanation:

Recall:

Volume of a sphere = ⁴/3πr³

Surface Area = 4πr²

✔️For radius (r) = 1 mm:

Volume = ⁴/3 × π × 1³ = 4.19 mm³

Surface Area = 4 × π × 1² = 12.57 mm²

Ratio of volume to surface area = 4.19 : 12.57 = 1:3

✔️For radius (r) = 3 mm:

Volume = ⁴/3 × π × 3³ = 113.1 mm³

Surface Area = 4 × π × 3² = 113.1 mm²

Ratio of volume to surface area = 113.1 : 113.1 = 1:1

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The correct answer is the endocrine system.

Explanation:

The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system and the endocrine system are the two prime systems that take part in the stress response.  

At the time of acute or chronic stress, the endocrine system first makes the hypothalamus to discharge CRH or corticotropin-releasing hormone into the bloodstream. The release of CRH further makes the anterior pituitary to discharge ACTH or adrenocorticotropic hormone into the blood. This further stimulates the adrenal cortex to discharge cortisol, that is, one of the glucocorticoid hormone into the bloodstream.  

The cortisol finally makes the organs and tissues present within the body to effectively cope up with the initial stress stimulus.
