Q

T/F: Chromatin floats in the nucleus which contains genetic material or instructions for the cells functions

17
Q

A light microscope can magnify objects up to __ times their original size.

18
Q

_____is an instrument that makes small objects appear larger.

19
Q

___ is a rigid layer of nonliving material that surrounds the plant cell.

20
Q

___ is the microscope that has better resolution

21
Q

The lenses in a light microscope magnifies an object by ____ the light that passes through it.

22
Q

Name the three parts of the cell theory in order.

A

All living things are composed of cells, Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things, All cells are produced from other cells

23
Q

Describe the difference between a light microscope and an electron microscope

A

Electron microscopes produce an image of a spiceimen by using beams of electrons instead a beam of light Electrons have much shorter wavelengths than visible light, and this allows electron microscopes to produce higher-resolution images than standard light microscopes.

24
Q

How do the cells of bacteria differ from those of other organisms

A

bacteria lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Unlike animals and plants, bacteria have pili, flagella, and most have a cell capsule.

25
Compare and contrast magnification and resolution
Magnification is the ability to make small objects seem larger. Resolution is the ability to distinguish two objects from each other.
