What microscope can observe a virus?
viruses can be observed by an electronic microscope
Can you see bacteria with viruses under microscope?
Yes, bacteria can be seen under a light microscope as they are larger than viruses. However, viruses are much smaller and cannot be seen with a light microscope. Specialized electron microscopes are required to visualize viruses.
Are viruses unicellular?
Viruses are DNA wrapped up in protein.
How is it possible to study viruses under the light microscope?
impossible is nothing
What organic molecules exist in all viruses?
Nucleic acid (varies) and protein.Other infectious particles includes viroid, where there is only a tiny RNA used for infection, and prions, which is an infectious protein.
What microscope can observe a virus?
viruses can be observed by an electronic microscope
Viruses can be observed using an?
microscope or for more detail an electron microscope
What is the differences between a compound and electron microscope?
The compound microscope is a light microscope that uses light to "see" microbes. Viruses are too small.The electron microscope uses electrons to "see" microbes or viruses.
Briefly explain how improvements in microscopes may have benefited scientists?
It has benefited scientists, as Ernst Ruska developed on the electron microscope, improving on the resolution. This is how he discovered Viruses and Molecules. Frits Zernike invented a microscope to study transparent and colourless specimens
Can Viruses be seen with a light microscope.?
Viruses are too small to be seen directly with a light microscope.Can be seen when it's examined under an electron microscope
Can you see bacteria with viruses under microscope?
Yes, bacteria can be seen under a light microscope as they are larger than viruses. However, viruses are much smaller and cannot be seen with a light microscope. Specialized electron microscopes are required to visualize viruses.
What basic structure do viruses share?
Unlike prions and viroids, viruses consist of two or three parts: all viruses have genes made from either DNA or RNA, long molecules that carry genetic information; all have a protein coat that protects these genes; and some have an envelope of fat that surrounds them when they are outside a cell. Viroids do not have a protein coat and prions contain no RNA or DNA. In short, just say that all viruses have a protein coat and either DNA or RNA.
What is the use of hand lever in the microscope?
the hand lever is the part of microscope.... the microscope need to see the small things or viruses....
Why is staining uranium important?
Uranyl acetate and uranyl formiate increase the contrast in electron microscopy of viruses, cells, biological samples, protein molecules, etc.
Do viruses have a protein coat?
no
What microscope is used to see a flu virus?
The electron microscope is used to view things such as viruses as they are to small to be seen on a light microscope
What type of microscope could be used to study virus?
An electron microscope can be used to view viruses. Scientists can use a negative stain to view bacteria and different types viruses.
