1) A class collected water samples from a nearby pond and wants to observe the samples for
microorganisms. Which microscope would be the most appropriate for the students to use?
A. Dissecting microscope
B. Compound light microscope
I
C. Transmission electron microscope
D. Scanning electron microscope

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Compound light microscope

Explanation:

This is the ideal microscope because it requires the passage of  harmless beam of light through the specimen.Since the pond contain living creatures this is best to use.

C and D both require the transmission of beam of electrons through a sample. D depends on the reflection of the electron  after scanning the specimen surfaces and sent this to the lenses of the observer.(C)involved the  passing of the beam of electrons through the specimen the interaction of the electrons with the atoms in the specimen(,therefore in both cases  these specimens can not be wet and living.

The specimen should be dry in both cases and therefore non -living ,because the chamber for the specimen must be a vacuum,and living organism can not survive in the vacuum. Thus pond water can not be used as specimen because the specimen in the water but me be living.

A mineral forms from water at the edge of a lake. Which statement best describes this mineral? The mineral formed from lava. The mineral formed through evaporation. The mineral formed when hot water cooled. The mineral crystallized from magma.

Answers

Answer:

The mineral formed through evaporation.

Explanation:

Minerals are inorganic substances that occur naturally i.e. not man-made. These minerals are formed in different ways in nature. One of those ways is through EVAPORATION.

Since water dissolves a lot of substances including the particles of these minerals, the mineral components can be found in a dissolved state in water bodies e.g lakes, oceans etc. However, when heat increases and the water molecules evaporate (change to gas), the dissolved minerals in these water bodies crystallize out.

This is what happens when minerals form at the edge of a lake. The water from the lake evaporates leading to the formation of minerals.

Answer:

The mineral formed through evaporation.

What do you mean by Cell cycle?

The Cell cycle may be defined as the process a cell goes through each time it divides.

Interphase is the initial stage of any cell cycle which is the interval between the end of one mitotic or meiotic division and the beginning of another. It is the longest phase of the cell cycle as compared to the mitotic phase.

Therefore, the interphase stage occurs before mitosis. In this stage, extra sub-phases like G1, S, and G2 are produced various proteins necessary for divisions.
