Compare and contrast the structure and function of a compound light microscope and a scanning electron microscope.

Hello.

Basically both operate by bouncing tiny particles or waves off of objects in order to make them visible. Electrons are smaller than light photons so we can see smaller objects clearly with electron microscopes. There are disadvantages though. First, color is a function of light wave frequency so we can't see electron micrographs in color. Color can be added artificially though by computer to differentiate structures, (think photoshop). Also, we cannot see electrons so we make them visible by bouncing them off a cathode ray screen similar to a TV set or computer monitor.

Have a nice day

Assessing aggregate exposure to a series of compounds with the same biological mechanism is called ________ exposure assessment

stira [4]

Assessing aggregate exposure to a series of compounds with the same biological mechanism is called cumulative exposure assessment.

<h3>What is cumulative exposure?</h3>

Because cumulative exposure evaluations evaluate exposure to numerous stressors via different pathways, they are referred to as "combined exposure assessments." Exposures to a single stressor are estimated using aggregate evaluations from different sources and pathways.

Cumulative evaluations portray real-world exposure more accurately, but they also provide an element of complexity not seen in typical exposure assessments , which evaluate stressors separately.
