microscope‚ a diaphragm‚ also known as an iris‚ is a revolving disk under the stage that can be adjusted to allow more or less light. It is typically a plastic disk located between the light source and the specimen mount. The compound microscope has two systems of lenses for greater magnification‚ 1) the ocular or eyepiece lens that one looks into and 2) the objective lens‚ or the lens closest to the object. A microscope works by using lights‚ mirrors‚ and glass to magnify. The mirrors and glass bend the

What proportion of the muscle fibers in the muscle do you think were contracting to produce this maximal response? Muscle fibers act in response to isolated stimuli in an all or none fashion. However‚ a muscle organ‚ such as the gastrocnemius muscle‚ is composed of many individual muscle fibers. It is known that all of the fibers in a muscle do not have the same threshold and that a stimulus applied to
