Why have improvements in microscopes over time resulted in revisions in the cell theory? They have revealed new information abou
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer;

They have revealed new information about cell structure and processes.

Explanation;

-The Cell Theory states that, All living things are made up of cells, Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things, and that new cells are produced from existing cells.

-Most microscopes use lenses to magnify the image of an object by focusing light or electrons.

-The Invention of the Microscope helped the development of the cell theory because it allowed the scientists to actually discover that everything was made up of cells, and what cells do to come up with that theory. If the scientists did not see that cells existed, they could not have observed the cells easily and they would not be able to construct the cell theory.

Rama09 [41]

<u>Answer</u>: Thermal energy---->  a polar bear breaks down stored fat to increase its temperature.

Mechanical energy-------> bat emits and receives sounds to locate prey.

Electrical energy------>eel releases a current to defend itself.

Radiant energy -------->  a firefly produces a green glow from its abdomen to attract mates.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • <em>Thermal energy</em> is the energy created in the movement of particles that leads to the production of heat and thus, the temperature increases. Since the polar bears break down fat to increase temperature, the energy generated is thermal energy.  
  • The<em> mechanical energy</em> is defined as the sum of energy of motion and   the position of an object  . Thus the energy produced by the bat to locate its prey is mechanical energy.
  • The energy associated with the production of electromagnetic radiation is<em> radiant energy,</em> thus the glow produced by fireflies is a form of radiant energy.
  • The energy produced due to the movement of electrons is electrical energy. Thus, the energy produced by an eel in the form of electric current is <em>electrical energy.</em>

Explanation:

Before a galaxy can be formed, the materials that help in building the galaxy rotate at a speed, it's the come together and collapse by it self due to it's gravitational pull. When it's collapse globular are formed and it's away from it's nucleus. The clusters this give rise Halo stars which are stars of the same age.

You are conducting a case control study to determine if an association exists between melanoma and indoor tanning. From a statew
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

a. Odds ratio = 1.58

b.  Inasmuch the odds ratio is greater than 1, this means that higher odds of melanoma exist in people exposed to indoor tanning, than in those not exposed to indoor tanning

Explanation:

For case  study                                                  

Let 'a'  represent the total population of people with melanomia = 696                                                      

Let 'b' represent the total number of people with melanomia exposed to indoor tanning  =  1107 – 696 = 411 people

For  control study

Let 'c' represent the total population = 1500

Let 'd' represent the total number of people not exposed to indoor tanning = 1500 - (0.428 * 1500)

                                                          =  1500 - 723

Total number of people not exposed to indoor tanning   = 777 people

                                                       

a. Odds ratio = (a/b) / (d/c) = (696/411) / (777/723)

                                                = 1.69 / 1.07 = 1.58

b. Inasmuch the odds ratio is greater than 1, this means that higher odds of melanoma exist in people exposed to indoor tanning, than in those not exposed to indoor tanning.
