Why cant opaque objects be veiwed under a compound microscope?
That is certainly not true. A "compound" microscope is one that has an objective AND an ocular. Typically the front focal distance is so short that illumination through the specimen is most common. A "simple" microscope has only one magnifying lens group, not two or more. Short front focus makes lighting from the side more difficult but not impossible or even rare.
What is the function of a stain in microscope work?
As the cells are transparent, the components cannot be seen clearly through a microscope. We stain the cell so that we can see the components of the cell clearly through a microscope.
Is it possible to photograph microscopic images through the eye piece of the microscope directly using an ordinary digital camera and get fairly good quality digital images?
Scan the negatives or prints. Adequate scanners are available for less than $100 if your media are 11 X 14' or smaller.
How does a microscope work?
Light waves are bent as they travel through glass increasing the ability to see items at a much more magnified level. First, we have to light up the specimen. A mirror mounted under the microscope stand does the job. Light bounces off the mirror, passes through and around our specimen (mounted firmly to a microscope slide), and into the objective lenses. These lenses bend some of the spread out light beams from the specimen into straight line paths that travel through the microscope tube. Next, the light beams reach the eyepiece lenses. These lenses bend the light back into your eye, so you can see the specimen up close.
What elements of art help lead the viewer's eye through the photograph?
emotional attitude and act..
What is a Photograph of a specimen taken through a compound light microscope called?
They are called photomicrographs
What structure does light pass through after leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope?
Specimen
What structure does a light pass through after leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope?
specimen
What type microscope allows light to pass through the specimen and uses two lenses to form an image?
a compound light microscope
A microscope that has a tube with its lenses a stage and a light source?
compound light microscope (light passes through the specimen and produces a flat image)
What is an instrument that allows light to pass through the specimen and uses two lens to from an image called?
The answer you are looking for is called a dissecting or stereo microscope. These provide a lower magnification range in comparison to compound microscopes and they use two sets of lenses, the eyepiece and the objective lenses. these then provide a 3D image.
Which part of a compound light microscope should a student adjust to allow more light to pass through a specimen?
the diaphragm
What is a photograph of the view through a microscope?
micrograph
What is used to pass light through a specimen?
microscope
What is the photograph of the view through a microscope?
It is called a micrograph.
What is transmission electron microscopes?
A transmission electron microscope (TEM) is a microscope in which a beam of electrons is transmitted through an ultra-thin specimen, interacting with the specimen as it passes through it.
Why must a specimen be very thin to be viewed under a light microscope?
Light microscope works because light goes *through* your specimen. So if the specimen is too thick, then light won't shine through, and you won't see anything.
