400 would be the lens power because you multiply them together

Answer:

The correct answer is 400 times.

Explanation:

The procedure of amplifying the ostensible size, not the physical size of something is known as magnification. This amplification is enumerated by a calculated number also known as magnification. Generally magnification is associated with scaling up of images or visuals in order to witness the details more clearly, with the use of printing techniques, microscopes, or digital processing.  

In the given case, in order to find the magnification, there is a need to multiply the objective power and the power of the ocular lens, that is, M = O × OL

It is mentioned, that Objective power = 40 times and Ocular lens power = 10 times,  

Therefore, M = 40 × 10 = 400. Hence, the magnification of the sample is 400 times.

The concentration of salt is higher inside a cell than outside the cell. The concentration of water inside the cell is lower tha
asambeis [7]

Answer:

C. Water will move into the cell through osmosis. The salt and water concentrations will become similar inside and outside the cell.

Explanation:

Osmosis is the movement of water from its higher concentration to the lower concentration through a semi permeable membrane. Here, the cell have higher salt concentration and lower water concentration as compared to its outside. Since cell membrane is semi permeable, salt cannot pass through it. So, water will move into the cell through osmosis to equalize the salt and water concentration on either side of cell membrane.

What specialized structures does crayfish have that make it well suited to its environment​
Zinaida [17]
Crayfish are invertebrates which means they don't have a backbone. They are also arthropods, which means that they have a protective exoskeleton on the outside of their body. Other arthropods include insects, spiders, and centipedes. Crayfish continually shed their exoskeleton and regrow a new one. During this transition is when they are most vulnerable to predators because they aren't protected by their outer shell.

Crayfish are found all over the world in many different freshwater environments, such as rivers, creeks, springs, and swamps. But this doesn't necessarily mean that you will be able to find them. They are somewhat cryptic because they dig out homes for themselves under rocks and blend in well with their environment. Crayfish will ardently defend this dwelling against intruders using their strong front claws
