What is the reason that a modern electron microscope (TEM) can resolve biological images to the subnanometer level, as opposed t

o tens of nanometers achievable for the best super-resolution light microscope?
a.the focal length of the electron microscope is significantly longerb.contrast is enhanced by staining with atoms of heavy metalc.electron beams have much shorter wavelengths than visible lightd.the electron microscope has a much greater ratio of image size to real size

Answer:

C. Electron beams have much shorter wavelengths than visible light

Explanation:

A beam of electrons is used to illuminate and create magnified images of specimens in an electron microscope. The resolution of a microscope increases with a decrease in the wavelength of the light it uses for illumination. The wavelength of electrons used in the electron microscope is about 100,000 times shorter than that of visible light. Therefore electron microscopes have a resolution thousand times better than the light microscope.

What is a european starlings ecological role
makkiz [27]
European Starlings have a significant impact on their environment because they congregate in such large numbers.  They probably play a role in seed dispersal because of their consumption of a wide variety of fruits.  European Starlings also control some insect populations, but since they will eat almost anything they cannot be relied upon to eat only pests.  Insects they are known to feed on include the larvae of craneflies (Tipulidae) and moths (Lepidoptera) as well as mayflies (Ephemeroptera), dragonflies and damsel flies (Odonata), grasshoppers (Orthoptera), earwigs (Dermaptera), lacewings (Neuroptera), caddis flies (Trichoptera), flies (Diptera), sawflies, ants, bees and wasps (Hymenoptera) and beetles (Coleoptera).  They will also eat small vertebrates such as lizards and frogs, as well as snails (Gastropoda) and earthworms (Annelida).  European Starlings have a particular technique of inserting their closed bill into the ground or an object and then prying the bill open, creating a small hole.  This allows them to forage efficiently in soil and among roots as well as in feed troughs and on the backs of ungulates where they search for ectoparisites.

A flattened membrane sac inside the chloroplast used to convert light energy into chemical energy
algol [13]

Answer: D: Thylakoids

Explanation:

Thylakoids - A flattened, membranous sac inside a chloroplast. They often exist in stacks called grana that are interconnected; their membranes contain molecular "machinery" used to convert light energy to chemical energy.

Clear access routes into and out of chemical zones used to avoid contamination are called
sp2606 [1]
Access Control Points

They are restrictions points that enforce regulations and guidelines on decontamination when exiting the sites and ensuring adherence safety standards when entering the site. The regulation are usually, as standard practice, conspicuously posted at the Access Control Points.
Access Control Points are usually set up at the periphery of the Exclusion Zones, and ideally, there should be a separate entrance and exit Control Access Point.
