Question

how do microscopes work? the cell theory could not have been developed without microscopes. some microscopes focus light through lenses to produce a magnified image, and other microscopes use beams of electrons. both light microscopes and electron microscopes do the same job in different ways. for a microscope to be useful, it must combine two important properties—magnification and resolution. magnification and lenses have you ever looked at something through spilled drops of water? if so, did the object appear larger? magnification is the condition of things appearing larger than they are. looking through a magnifying glass has the same result. a magnifying glass consists of a convex lens, which has a center that is thicker than its edge. when light passes through a convex lens and into your eye, the image you see is magnified. magnification changes how you can see objects and reveals details you may not have known were there, as shown in figure 3. vocabulary prefixes the prefix magni - means \great\ or \large.\ underline all the words in the paragraph at the right that you can find with this prefix. figure 3 magnification the images above have all been magnified, which makes them look unfamiliar. infer on the lines, write what you think each photograph shows, and explain your reasoning.

Explanation:

For the second image with white - spotted grey pattern, it could be a section of an insect's wing as insects often have such patterned wings. For the third orange - colored image, it might be a section of a fruit like an orange due to the color and texture. For the fourth image with blue, yellow and black patterns, it could be a section of a butterfly's wing as butterflies have distinct and colorful wing patterns.

Answer:

1. Insect's wing; Reason: Insects often have patterned wings.
2. Section of a fruit (e.g., orange); Reason: Color and texture are similar to a fruit.
3. Butterfly's wing; Reason: Distinct and colorful patterns typical of butterfly wings.
