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.

Greg's mom has bushy eyebrows. Greg's dad has a large nose. Greg has bushy eyebrows and a large nose. Which statement correctly

balandron [24]

<span>C is the correct answer. A is not correct because we do not know if nose size and eyebrow size are sex linked traits - nothing in the question suggests this. Moreover, heredity is not just the passing of sex linked traits. Heredity also includes traits that are not sex linked. B is not correct because genes are not located inside ribosomes. Genes are located on DNA. DNA synthesis does not cause heredity. DNA synthesis is the replication of the DNA prior to cell division. D is not correct. C is the correct answer because genes are located on DNA that is contained in a chromosome. DNA contains information about proteins. The information is hereditary, or passed down, from parent to child.</span>
