Biology
1 answer:
siniylev [52]4 years ago
5 0

The thoracic cavity, also called the chest cavity, is a cavity of vertebrates bounded by the rib cage on the sides and top, and the diaphragm on the bottom. The chest cavity is bound by the thoracic vertebrae, which connect to the ribs that surround the cavity. The thoracic cavity is actually composed of three spaces each lined with mesothelium, a special film-like tissue that separates vital organs. The pleural cavities surround the lungs, while the pericardial cavity surrounds and protects the heart.

Explain the steps that you would use to focus on a specimen under a compound light microscope.
Rashid [163]

To start, move the objective lens to its lowest power setting. Place a slide on the stage with the label side up and the cover slip in the middle. You can only use the coarse focus knob when the power is low. If you can't see anything, move the slide a little while you look and focus. If nothing shows up, turn down the light and move the slide a little while you're looking and focusing. Once you're in focus on low power, move the slide to make the object of interest in the middle of it. Turn the objective to medium power and only change the fine focus. If you need to, turn the objective to high power and only adjust the fine focus.

Which common medication is extremely toxic to cats?
DochEvi [55]
<span>Aspirin/Paracetamol/Ibuprofen are all extremely toxic to cats when an incorrect dose is given. Whilst common medication can be beneficial to some animals when given in the correct dose, it can also be highly dangerous.
