20
Q

areolar tissue can be found where and what does it do

A

around organs
connects organs and tissues together

21

Q

best resolution microscrope

A

electron microscopes

29
Q

why are electron microscopes better?

A

electrons have much shorter wavelength than visible light so they distinguish objects that are smaller and closer together
