Answer: Fluorescence microscope

Explanation:

The basic function of a fluorescence microscope is to irradiate the specimen with a desired and specific band of wavelengths. A fluorescence microscope uses a mercury or xenon lamp to produce ultraviolet light. The light comes into the microscope and hits a dichroic mirror. The dichroic mirror reflects the ultraviolet light up to the specimen. The ultraviolet light excites fluorescence within molecules in the specimen. The objective lens collects the fluorescent-wavelength light produced. This fluorescent light passes through the dichroic mirror and a barrier filter, making it to the eyepiece to form the image.

Provide the term for base triplets on tRNA

Semmy [17]

The answer is anticodon.

Anticodons are base triplets on transfer RNA (tRNA). tRNA carries amino acids to the ribosome for protein synthesis. The prefix anti- suggests that anticodons are complementary to the codons on mRNA. Codons are base triplets on mRNA. So, anticodons of tRNA pair with codons of mRNA in the process of protein synthesis.

An amphibian that lacks lungs and breathes entirely through its skin would have to be smaller than an amphibian with lungs so that the small oxygen intake correlates with the small surface area of the amphibian. This would then allow it to breath efficiently.
