Question

An ecologist is examining a field with wild flowers. They want to know what types of pollinators carry the most pollen among flowers in the field. In order to determine how much pollen is being carried by each pollinator, the ecologist must examine the entire bodies of multiple organisms, before releasing them back into the wild flower field. What microscope would best assist the ecologist in this task?

Answer 1

Dissecting Microscope

Step-by-step explanation:

The dissecting microscope is also called a stereomicroscope and is the most suitable for making a complete view of the bodies of the organisms shown in the question above. This is because this type of microscope has two objective lenses that capture light and provide a three-dimensional view to the observer, who will be able to fully observe and count the pollen grains in the body of each organism.
