Explanation:

Microscopes are instruments used for viewing microscopic cellular structures, not visible with the human eye. With an arrangement of lenses, and manipulation of light or electrons, these magnify very small objects. Light microscopy uses light and multiple lenses, while electron microscopes use electrons. These create larger images of objects.

Subcellular components and molecules require the closed system of the cell in order to function with different arrangements and features being key to certain phyla, groups and species; this aided in the reclassification of organisms into the kingdoms and phyla we know today.

Further Explanation:

Biology's unifying principle states that cells are the basic units of biological organisms. Cells sharing a similar origin, group together in the body to form tissues; these typically share physical features and are arranged in regular patterns. All living things, grow, respire, reproduce etc. these processes are carried out by cells, which are thus integral to their survival.

Before the discovery of cells by Robert Hooke in 1665 with a simple microscope, many scientists had long believed that life rose spontaneously over extended periods of time. Circa 1668 Francesco Redi, challenged the idea of spontaneous generation of maggots from rotting meat by placing meat in various sealed open, partially sealed and sealed containers. Sealed containers did not show the presence of maggots, and he theorized that these were likely from eggs laid on the meat by flies. This was the development of the theory of abiogenesis (cells arise from other living cells); this eventually proved the unifying principle we know today.

Cell theory states that living things are comprised of cells, as their smallest units capable of functioning. Microscopy helps to prove this, as cells and their varying components can readily be seen, observed and later classified. Their components and molecules require the closed system of the cell in order to function with different arrangements and features being key to certain phyla, groups and species; this aided in the reclassification of organisms into the kingdoms and phyla we know today.

Intrasexual selection

Intrasexual Selection is when members of the same sex within a species contend emulously with each other in order to acquire chances to mate with others such as the male against male competition for females. This type of selection often involves posturing and fighting. Species or individuals suitable for intrasexual selection will possess developed better weapons than their competitors.

How do bacteria protect themselves against viruses?
777dan777 [17]

These viruses – known as phages – attach to the surface of bacterial cells, inject their genetic material, and use the cells' enzymes to multiply while destroying their hosts. To defend against a phage attack, bacteria have evolved a variety of immune systems

Mr Ackah, a retired teacher had been recording consistent increase of blood pressure for the past five year. what accounted for
OleMash [197]

Answer:

Change in the vascular system.

Explanation:

High blood pressure occurs when the arteries in the human body system become rigid thereby making the blood pressure rise.

The cause for this situation particularly in older people is the changes in the vascular system or circulatory system.

This is said to be vasoconstriction which lowers the flow of blood in the circulatory system, thereby causing high blood pressure

Hence, since Mr. Ackah is a retired teacher, it is believed that he is an old man susceptible to changes in the vascular system or vasoconstriction.

svp [43]

Answer:

Option (2).

Explanation:

The cell potential or membrane potential may be defined as the difference in the electric potential between inside and outside of the cell. The membrane potential of the cell changes during the propagation of action potential.

The resting membrane potential is -70mV. The influx of sodium ions causes the depolarization of the cell membrane. The cell potential changes from -70mV to + 30mV. The membrane potential becomes more positive during the depolarization phase.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2).
