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.

A rare orchid has been found in the mountains in China.
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a mutation in the germinal line changed the phenotype to bright flowers which were capable of attracting more pollinators compared to yellow flowers. Subsequently, this mutation was selected by natural selection, thereby increasing its frequency in the population

Explanation:

A mutation is any change in the nucleotide DNA sequence of the genome of a particular organism. Mutations can be divided into 1-germinal mutations (i.e., mutations that occurred in the gamete cells) which can be passed on to offspring, and 2-somatic mutations (i.e., mutations that occurred in the somatic cells), which cannot be inherited. Moreover, mutations can be neutral, deleterious or beneficial depending on the environment in which the organism lives. When a germinal mutation is beneficial, the organism carrying the mutation will have more chances to survive and reproduce (i.e., a higher adaptive fitness), thereby the organism will have more chance to pass this mutation to the next generation and the mutation will increase its frequency in the population.
