<h2>Order of parts of a microscope
</h2>
First – ocular lens
Second – Body tube
Third – Revolving Nosepiece
Fourth – Objective lens
Fifth – Coverslip
Explanation:
Ocular lens: The lens present in the eyepiece at the top of the microscope, close to the eyes, through which a person looks through the microscope to view the specimen. Magnification of ocular lens in a compound microscope is usually 10x
Body tube: The tube that connects the eyepiece with the objective of the microscope for continuous optical alignment.
Revolving Nosepiece: The turret that holds the objective and revolves to select the objective lens according to its magnification
Objective lens: The objective lens is located above the specimen rack. Objective lens creates the primary image of the specimen viewed through the eyepiece. A single compound microscope can have more than two objective lens and their magnification ranges from 4x, 10x, 40x, 100x power.
Coverslip: The cover glass which covers the objective lens and prevent from touching the specimen
. This is the object directly above the specimen.
<h2>Genetic diversity </h2>
Explanation:
If the environment changes, the species runs the risk of not having the genetic diversity to be adaptable to that change and could go extinct
- Genetic diversity is the diversity or genetic variability within species
- The huge variety of different gene sets defines an individual or a whole population's ability to tolerate stress from any given environmental factor
- While some individuals might be able to tolerate an increased load of pollutants in their environment, others carrying different genes might suffer from infertility or even die under the exact same environmental conditions;the former will continue to live in the environment the latter will either have to leave it or die
- Any change in the environment - natural or human induced causes a selection of events that only the fittest survive
- In case of elephant seals,overhunting reduces the sum of genes available,thus leaving behind a population that is less capable of tolerating any further natural or human disturbances in environment
- The loss of genetic diversity within a species can result in the loss of useful and desirable traits
