Question
Chapter 2.L2, Problem 1VC
Summary Introduction
To analyse:
The two views in the picture and with the reference of figure 2.17, speculate on the molecules that are depicted in each.
Introduction:
Different polysaccharides are made by different types of bonding of monomers. If the monomers are H-bonded along their length, then a fibrous structure is formed. If the monomers are bonded in a non-linear fashion, compact and granular structures are formed.

Staining of cells is often performed to enhance images acquired by brightfield microscopy. Phasecontrast microscopy does not require cell staining. Why is this advantageous?
You have a microscope equipped with 10 x oculars and 4 objectives, which exhibit the following characteristics (M, NA):
Tick the right answers:o Objectives B and C are equivalent.o Objective D will allow more detailed observation than objective C.o To see small structures, you should choose objective D rather than C.o Objective D has a lower resolution than objective C.o To observe large objects, it is better to use objective B rather than objective C
