<span>Anton van Leeuwenhoek learned to grind lenses ( 1668) and develop simple microscopes.

</span>

Leeuwenhoek heated the middle of a small soda glass rod , over a flame. On pulling apart the two ends, the glass rod elongated into thin whiskers . 
Heating the end of this whisker resulted in a tiny high quality glass sphere. These glass spheres then became the lens of his microscope, with the smallest sphere providing the greatest magnification.

Leeuwenhoek's designs were very basic. The body of the microscope was a single lens mounted in a tiny hole on a brass plate. The specimen was then mounted on a sharp point that sticks up in front of the lens. It's position and focus could be adjusted by turning the two screws.

The entire instrument was about 3 to 4 inches long and had to be held up close to the eye, requiring good lighting and great patience to use.

if a bunny eats grass that has 100 units of energy and the bunny get 10% how much is passed on to the next animal .​
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

This is an excellent source!

Example- The producer receives its energy from the sun, which is the ultimate source of energy. Meaning all the energy we use comes from the sun. Like I said earlier, the energy from the corn moves into the mouse. Not all the energy that the corn has is able to be transferred into the mouse, only about 10% of the available energy is transferred to each trophic level. A trophic level is the position an animal occupies in a food chain. And again only about 10% of energy is transferred from the mouse to the owl.

10%
