With a light microscope one can view the nucleus and endoplasmic reticulum, large vacuoles etc
The resolution of a light microscope is dependent on the wavelength of light that is the main beam of illumination. Light has approximately 0.4 um (UV)- 0.7um (Infrared) wavelength. Organelles smaller than about 0.5 um will be difficult to discern with a light microscope.
With an electron microscope one can view, in addition, even the ribosomes and mitochondria, chromosomes, tubules etc.
An electron microscope can discern very minute details of a cell. This is because its resolution is dependent on the very small wavelength of a beam of electrons which is approximately 0.002 um (about 10,000 times powerful than a light microscope)
Answer:
b. determine the evolutionary relationships among species
Explanation:
Biologists through the analysis of characters obtained from molecular, morphological, embryological, physiological and behavioral analyzes look for the relationship between species and their origin.Through these coincidences phylogenetic trees are made.
One of the challenges that scientists face when classifying a new fossil is that any tiny detail is all that separates one species from another. Further exploration is required to identify another set of characteristics that may help in deciding which organism belongs or create a new class.
Pancreas is an endocrine gland . It secretes lipase as well. lipase breaks down fats into glycerol by the process of emulsification. it secretes hormones insulin and glucagon
