1. Answer: 900x

A typical microscope has two lens: ocular lens which located near the eye, and objective lens which located near the object. The image will undergo magnification of both lens. The total magnification of the object would be the product of both lens multiplication, not the sum. The multiplication will be: 20x * 45x= 900x

total mag= ocular * object

total mag= 20x * 45x

total mag= 900x


2.  Answer: 100x

The total magnification of the object would be the product of both lens multiplication. If the total magnification 1000x, that mean it was the product of ocular lens and objective lens. If ocular lens magnification is 10x, objective lens magnification would be:

total mag= ocular * object

1000x= 10x*object

object=1000x/ 10x=

object=100x

3. Answer: 0.2 mm

The area of the microscope that can be viewed by the eye should be the same. But since the magnification is different, the actual area that it represent will be different. Microscope with bigger magnification will have smaller diameter of the field of view(DFV).  Remember that micrometer(μm) is 1/1000 of millimeter(mm). The DFV would be:500 μm/ ( 1000x/400x)= 200μm= 0.2 mm


4. Answer: 750μm

This question is similar to number 3 question. Remember that 1 millimeter(mm) equal to 1000 micrometer(μm) .

The DFV of a 10x objective lens is 3 mm. Then the DFV of 40x lens would be:

DFV2= DFV1/ (mag1/mag2)

DFV2= 3mm/ ( 40x/10x)= 0.75 mm= 750μm

5. Answer: 125μm x 37.5μm

The lens DFV of microscope from question 4 is 750μm, so the width and length of the area would be 750μm.

If 6 organisms could fit across the DFV if they were laid end-to-end, the length would be: 750μm/ 6 organism= 125μm

If 20 organism could fit is stacked side by-side, then the width would be: 750μm/ 20 organism= 37.5μm

6. Answer: 6mm

This question is similar to number 3 and number 4 question. Remember that 1 millimeter(mm) equal to 1000 micrometer(μm).

The DFV of a 100x objective lens is 1.5 mm. Then the DFV of 25x lens would be:

DFV2= DFV1/ (mag1/mag2)

DFV2= 1.5mm/ (100x/25x)= 6 mm


7.Using the 100x objective lens from question 6, you estimate 12 organisms could fit across the DFV if they were laid end-to-end and 30 could fit is stacked side-by-side. What is the length and width of this organism (in microns)?  

Answer: 0.5mm x 0.2mm or 500μm x 200μm

The lens DFV of microscope from question 6 is 6 mm, so the width and length of the area would be 6 mm.

If 12 organisms could fit across the DFV if they were laid end-to-end, the length would be: 6mm/ 12 organism=0.5mm

If 30 organism could fit is stacked side by-side, then the width would be: 6mm/ 30 organism= 0.2mm

Fasciae are layers of connective tissue, mainly collagen, situated under the skin, which closes, supports, and separates muscles and other structures. Fasciae are grouped by their anatomical location, layer (as visceral fascia, superficial fascia, and deep fascia), or by their functions. Fasciae reduces friction and provide an adjustable covering for nerves and blood vessels as they move through muscles.

What is it called when the forest remains but its richness and well-being have deteriorated?
ira [324]

Answer: Biodiversity loss

Explanation:

The biodiversity can be defined as the variety of life forms on earth or any other region. The forests are rich sources of biodiversity. The hunting, poaching, animal trafficking, and other ill-legal related human activities are like to reduce the species richness in forests. As many species are dependent upon other species for food, mate and other requirements for completing the life cycle thus the well-being of the forests will get deteriorated by the loss of biodiversity.

Natural selection is the process by which favorable traits tend to increase in frequency over time.
Nana76 [90]

Answer: The statement is true

Explanation:

Natural selection, as its name implies refers to the choice of certain favorable traits such as resistance to diseases, bigger fruit size etc above lesser favorable traits such as easy susceptibility to diseases, small fruit size etc.

Hence, nature allows the traits that will help living organisms survive best in their environment to be passed down to new offsprings while it eliminates all other traits.

Thus, the statement is true
