- Why are stereomicroscopes often referred to as dissecting microscopes? Stereomicroscopes come apart (dissect) easily. The large distance between the lens and the specimen makes them ideal for dissections. They are good for viewing much smaller objects. Only a few specimens will fit under the stereomicroscope. The two eyepiece lenses on a stereomicroscope give a better perception of depth.arrow_forwardDolores Pirolla expresses concern about her husband’s safetyat home—especially when she is not present—because of his increasingly limited vision.

This makes the user more likely to ram the sample into the lens. Why is it common for the lens to focus closer to the sample at higher magnifications?

- Estimating size in biology. Please help.arrow_forwardRecall that the eye is composed of three layers or "tunics" — the fibrous, vascular, and nervous layers — which enclose two cavities that are separated from each other by the lens. Review the components of these three layers by matching each description with the appropriate letter in the figure below: 1. Fluid in the anterior portion of the eye that provides nutrients to the lens and cornea 2. The "whites" of the eye 3. Area of the retina that lacks photoreceptors 4. Contains smooth muscle that controls the shape of the lens 5. Nutritive (nourishing) layer of the eye 6. Layer containing rods and cones 7. Gel-like substance that helps support the eyeball 8. Pigmented smooth muscles that control pupil size 9. Most anterior component of the fibrous layer — your "window to the world" 10.
