1. Simple optical microscope. One lens.
Disadvantage: Only Van Leeuwenhoek made them, and he's dead.
Advantage: Worked pretty well. With them, Van Leeuwenhoek discovered protozoa and bacteria.

2. Compound optical microscope. Has both an ocular and objective lens.
Disadvantage: limited resolution. Can resolve bacteria, but not smaller things like viruses.
Advantage: can be used with live specimens (using phase contrast or polarized or other special illumination).

3. Binocular dissecting microscope (optic). Has a pair of ocular and objective lenses, and supposedly presents a "3D" view of the specimen to the viewer (I was never able to see in 3D using these darn things).
Disadvantage: Limited magnification
Advantage: Can be used to perform surgery on small but not microscopic specimens, such as fruit flies. Is used in "microsurgery" in hospitals too.

Hope this helps buddy!

Answer:

The three types of specimens a dissecting microscope are as follows:

  1. Optical Microscopes.
  2. Electron Microscopes.
  3. Scanning Probe Microscopes.
  • Optical microscopes are the oldest and the simplest microscope it uses a single convex lens to enlarges the image placed under its focus.
  • Electron Microscope is used by scientists to study cell, this microscope fire beams of electrons on the subject which is held in the vacuum-sealed tubes.
  • Scanning probe microscopy is a powerful microscope, it can detect matters smaller than the nano-meter however its images have no color because it uses probe measure things other than visible light.

How do animals help to pollinate flowers
Komok [63]
Usually plants rely on animals or the wind to pollinate them. When animals such as bees, butterflies, moths, flies, and hummingbirds pollinate plants, it's accidental. They are not trying to pollinate the plant. When they move to another flower to feed, some of the pollen can rub off onto this new plant's stigma.

How do the process of DNA replication and the laws of inheritance help cells and individuals pass on their
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer/Explanation:

DNA replication doubles each chromosome, meaning the cell can pass on DNA to daughter cells - the duplicated DNA is divided equally between the two new cells formed from the parent.

The laws of inheritance are:

1) The Law of Dominance: An organism with alternate forms of a gene, called alleles, will always display the form that is dominant, masking the recessive trait.

2) The Law of Segregation: In a diploid genome, like most eukaryotes, each trait is defined by a pair of genes (alleles). Each allele is randomly passed on to the gametes so that each gamete only contains one allele.   The offspring inherits one allele from each parent during the process of fertilization.

2) The Law of Independent Assortment: Genes for different traits are sorted independently from one another That is, the inheritance of one trait does not depend on the inheritance of another trait. so that the inheritance of one trait is not dependent on the inheritance of another.
