ribosomes were once a prokaryotic microbes.

V. Problem Solving
Connor is a 12-Stem student. During his biology class, they are tasked to view a cell under a
microscope. He used a compound microscope with an Eyepiece of 15x and he used the low
power objective with 10x magnification. Upon viewing he observed the following organelles:
nucleus, central vacuole and a cell membrane.

Question for numbers 41-44. What is the total magnification of the image?

Answer:
Formula: 41. ___________________________________________________________________
Given: 42. ______________________________________________________________________
