Biology

boyakko [2]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Compound microscopes are capable of greater magnification and resolution, but need to be used with very small objects that the light can easily pass through. Dissecting microscopes are used for examining larger, thicker objects at lower magnification.

Explanation:

The dissecting microscope is configured to allow low magnification of three-dimensional objects- objects larger or thicker than the compound microscope can accommodate. Furthermore, the two separate lenses of the binocular dissecting microscope allow one to see objects in three dimensions, i.e., in stereo.

Ivenika [448]
I would tell the room mate  that what i just heard was the resemblance between the Fayum catarrhines and the Miocene proconsulids in skull form and dentition which suggests an evolutionary relationship, even if the direct fossils evidence is not present. Primates are divided into two groups; the prosimians and anthropoids. Monkeys evolved from Prosimians during the Oligocene Epoch while Apes evolved from the Catarrhines in Africa during the Miocene Epoch. Apes are then divided into the lesser apes and the greater apes.
