Revision notes on 2.2.4 Resolution & Magnification for the AQA A Level Biology syllabus, written by the Biology experts at Save My Exams.
Dec 24, 2022 · Key Points. Magnification is the ability to make small objects seem larger, such as making a microscopic organism visible. Resolution is the ability to distinguish two objects from each other. Light microscopy has limits to both its resolution and its magnification.
Primary immune response: The response produced by the immune system when it encounters a pathogen for the first time. Resolution: The ability to distinguish two different points in a specimen. Ribosomes: Organelles found either free in the cytoplasm or membrane bound that are involved in the synthesis of proteins.

Resolution is the minimal distance that separates two point sources of light in the microscope to form an image in the image plane for which the two point sources of light are discernible as two separate objects.
Resolution: The ability to distinguish two different points in a specimen. Specialised cells: Cells that are adapted to perform a specific function. Stem cell: An undifferentiated cell that can divide to produce many specialised cells of the same type. Surface area: The amount of contact an object has with its environment.

Magnification is how many times larger an image is than the object. For example, here the image is 1,000 larger than the object, so its magnification is x 1,000. Resolution is the ability to distinguish between two separate points (or how detailed the image is).
