Microscopes have been used for centuries in order to see specimen scientists cannot see with their unaided eye. Antón VanLeeonhoeuk is given credit for designing the first lenses for microscopes in the 16th century. He looked at “animacules” which we would now call bacteria and protists. Robert Hooke first coined the term cell, as he looked at cork and thought it looked like cells that monks slept in. Improvements were made in the following centuries, and Ernest Leintz in the 1800s creates a way to have differing magnification lenses on one microscope. Continuing into the 1900s and 2000s there are now electron scanning microscopes, ultraviolet microscopes, atomic force microscopes, and electron tunneling microscopes—all which allow scientists to have better resolution and to see smaller and smaller things. Microscope technology will continue to improve as scientists discover more ways to magnify the microscopic world.

The algae, walleye pollock, and orca populations could have all affected the moon jelly population. What additional
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

I'd need the data from the population sizes of the algae, walleye pollock, orca, ocean sunfish and sea turtles. And I'd also need water temperature data, levels of dissolved oxygen.

Explanation:

The jellyfish population may have increased because of an increase in phytoplankton. This leads to an increase in

zooplankton; a decrease in walleye pollock, leading to an increase in zooplankton; or an increase in orcas, leading to a

decrease in sea turtles. Sea turtles, being the main predator for keeping the jellyfish population in check.

Also, if there are more red algae, jellyfish polyps have less place to grow. Without it, the polyps can attach itself on every surface.

Bumek [7]

Sternal angle marks the joint between the sternum and the 2nd rib.

Option E.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Sternum is the breast bone which is a dorsi ventrally flattened bone present in thorax of human. It gives the support for the ribs where the ribs join. A sternum has three parts - Manubrium sterni, body of sternum and the xyphoid process.

The sternum has attachments of a total of 10 ribs and clavicle. The clavicle and the first rib joins in the Manubrium sterni, and the 3rd to 10th rib joins in the body of sternum. The 2nd rib joins in a facet which is partly in Manubrium sterni and partly in body of sternum. This place id also called the sternal angle. So the sternal angle marks the joint of 2nd rib to sternum.
