How do you find total magnification? To figure the total magnification of an image that you are viewing through the microscope is really quite simple. To get the total magnification take the power of the objective (4X, 10X, 40x) and multiply by the power of the eyepiece, usually 10X. How do you find objective magnification? […]
What ecosystems are found in the tropical rainforest?
What ecosystems are found in the tropical rainforest? The Ecosystems of the Amazon Rainforest Varzea: floodplain forests. The areas close to riversides that are flooded during the rainy season. Terra firma: rainforest. Terra firma literally means firm earth and is essentially forest area that is not on a floodplain. Igapo: forests on the blackwaters of […]
Why is it colder at high altitudes?
Why is it colder at high altitudes? The basic answer is that the farther away you get from the earth, the thinner the atmosphere gets. The total heat content of a system is directly related to the amount of matter present, so it is cooler at higher elevations. Is the sun stronger at higher altitudes? […]

What are the basics of intracellular signaling?
What are the basics of intracellular signaling? 1 Introduction. Intracellular signaling is an important mechanism by which cells can respond to their environment and extracellular cues. Cells can sense their environment and modify gene expression, mRNA splicing, protein expression and protein modifications in order to respond to these extracellular cues. How does intercellular communication occur? […]
What happens when the length of a pendulum increases?
What happens when the length of a pendulum increases? The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.) What is the time […]
How does changing land affect carbon cycle?
How does changing land affect carbon cycle? Human activities such as fossil fuel combustion and land use change have resulted in carbon fluxes from terrestrial ecosystem to the atmosphere, which increased the atmospheric CO2 concentration, and reinforced the greenhouse effect. Which of these are negative effects of global warming? Global warming stresses ecosystems through temperature […]
Why is C less reactive than a?
Why is C less reactive than a? Down the group, the atomic size increases. Therefore, the attraction of the nucleus for the outside electrons decreases. This means that down the group of non-metals, reactivity decreases. Thus, the element C is less reactive than the element A. Which element out of A and C is more […]
Why are there two major types of planets?
Why are there two major types of planets? why are there two major types of planets? some formed within the frost line where only metal and rock could condense (terrestrial), some formed beyond the frost line, where where cooler temperatures allowed for hydrogen compounds to condense into ice (jovian). Why salt water makes you float? […]
