Resolution and Sensitivity
Arthropods that are apt to be active in dim light (e.g., crayfish, praying mantis) concentrate the screening pigments of their ommatidia into the lower ends of the pigment cells.
resolution In relation to microscopes, the ability to view adjacent objects as distinct structures.
Resolution is the ability to distinguish between two objects (or points). The closer the two objects are, the easier it is to distinguish recognize the distance between them.
Resolution: Degree of molecular detail on a physical map of DNA, ranging from low to high.
Low Resolution Physical Mapping of Human Chromosome 5: Cloning the Cri-du-Chat Critical Regions

Resolution. The smallest amount of change that an instrument can discriminate. See Accuracy and Precision.
Resource. A commodity that is required by an organism and is potentially in short supply ...
The resolution to this problem is the same for both genetic algorithms and biological evolution: evolution is not a process that has to find the single global optimum every time.

limit of resolution - the limiting separation at which two objects can still be seen as
distinct.
For the human genome, the lowest-resolution physical map is the banding patterns on the 24 different chromosomes; the highest-resolution map would be the complete nucleotide sequence of the chromosomes.
High-resolution live-cell imaging techniques have recently provided structural and biochemical insight into the differential use of matrixdegrading enzymes in the migration processes of different cell types within the three-dimensional ECM.
One is using positron emission tomography to image whole brains, and they can do that at a resolution of small bunches of cells.
The brain is scanned at low resolution but at a rapid rate (typically once every 2-3 seconds). Increases in neural activity cause changes in the MR signal via a mechanism called the BOLD (blood oxygen level-dependent) effect.
Reorientation and fusion of cytotoxic T lymphocyte granules after interaction with target cells as determined by high resolution cinemicrography. J. Immunology 136:377-382, 1986.

In fact, human eyes have a resolution of about 100 µm. On the chart below, notice that of all the structures listed, only the plant cell is within our resolution--just barely.

A photomicrograph of an individual's chromosomes arranged in a standard format showing the number, size, and shape of each chromosome type; used in low-resolution physical mapping to correlate gross chromosomal abnormalities with the characteristics ...

A special kind of microscope that scans samples with a high-energy beam of electrons to produce a high-resolution, detailed, three-dimensional image. An SEM can magnify a sample up to 250 times that of the best light microscopes.
A variant of clinical magnetic resonance imaging, which has been adapted for non-invasive studies of small samples that range in size from rats to frog embryos. Typical spatial resolutions are in the range of tens to hundreds of micrometres.
Acrylamide gels: A polymer gel used for electrophoresis of DNA or protein to measure their sizes (in daltons for proteins, or in base pairs for DNA). See "Gel Electrophoresis". Acrylamide gels are especially useful for high resolution separations ...
scanning electron microscope The type of microscope in which an electron beam, instead of light, forms a three-dimensional image for viewing, allowing much greater magnification and resolution.
technique A method for studying ion channels in which a high-resistance seal is formed between a pipette and a small patch of plasma membrane, allowing the monitoring of the flow of ions through a single channel with high time resolution.
