Compare and contrast the structure and function of a compound light microscope and a dissecting microscope.

1. both are electron microscopes, but the dissecting microscope has a higher magnification than the compound light microscope.

2. both are electron microscopes, but the compound light microscope can view only nonliving things.

3. both are light microscopes, but the compound light microscope has a higher magnification than the dissecting microscope.

4. both are light microscopes, but the dissecting microscope can view only nonliving things.

1. true.2. true.3. true.4. false.5. true.the concept of darwin's theory of evolution involves the idea that there are limited resources in a given living environment and that the organisms which live within have variations in their genetic make up due to random mating. the ones with beneficial genetic variations can express certain traits which give them an upper hand in surviving and reproducing in the said environment compared to ones who may have a more disadvantageous variation in traits. over time, the organisms with an upper hand will survive and reproduce more frequently and pass on their beneficial genes while the others die. the result is evolution, where we observe (usually, but not always) eventually, phenotypic distinct changes.
