d. walls and coverings

e. natural pigmentation

Expert Solution
Step 1

Differential interference microscopy needs many optical parts, thus it may be terribly costly to line up. light from an incandescent supply is responded to a polarizer, in order that all of the light obtaining through should vibrate in a very single plane. The beam is then responded to a prism that separates it into elements that are separated by a really little distance - capable the resolution of the target lens. The beams meet up with the condenser, then the specimen.
