What is stage in microscope?
it is where the specimen to be viewed is placed.
How does the image of a specimen change when viewed under a compound microscope?
It is inverted .
Why is it important for a specimen viewed under the microscope to be thin?
A specimen being viewed under a microscope should be thin so that light can pass through the specimen. The thinner it is the brighter it will be. A thick specimen will block the light and all you'll get is a dark grey image. Also, more detail can be seen in a thin specimen because there will not be parts in front of each other, blocking the view.
Why must a specimen be thin to be viewed under the microscope and why are they sometimes stained with dyes?
To see them better

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.

Because light must pass through it.
How must samples be prepare for observation by electron microscope?
They must be preserved and dehydrated. Once this is accomplished, put the specimen onto a slide, and then the slide is ready to be viewed under the microscope.

How objects look different when viewed through the light microscope?
Objects viewed through a light microscope look a lot bigger.
What would be the magnification of a specimen viewed with a compound light microscope that has an objective power of 40x and an ocular lens power of 10x?
