a TEM microscope privides an detailed image of the inside of a specimen
a SEM microscope provides a 3D image of a specimen
take for exampel a sperm in a TEM microscope you would see the inner stucture of the sperm
in a SEM microscope you would se in detail the exact form shape of the sperm

How would you distinguish between the light microscope and the electron microscope?
Light microscopes can use live cells and are much smaller than electron microscopes
What are differences and similarities of sound and light?
sound can travel in vaccum but light cannot travel in vaccum
What is the main difference between compound light microscopes and electron microscopes?
light microscopes direct light onto the slide and magnify it, light microscopes also have a high and low power objective lens which can magnify up to 10, 40, 43 and 100 times total magnification whilst electron microscopes shoot electrons at the slide which give more detail and accuracy but the disadvantage is it can't view objects in color. electron microscopes can magnify up to 500.000 times total magnification.Light microscopes aren't as strong as an electron microscope in respect to zooming power. The specimen can remain alive in light microscope but for electron microscopes, preparation of the slides will kill the specimen.
How are light microscopes and electron microscopes are different?
Light microscopes use light zo you can see close up but they are not as powerful. Electron microscopes use of coarse electrons and thats when you see the really close up of cells.
Which of the following is a lens found on electron microscopes but not on light microscopes?
Projector Lens
What is the difference between electron microscopes?
Electron microscopes and what ... Light microscopes produce magnified images by focusing visible light rays. Electron microscopes produce magnified images by focusing beams of electrons
What is an advantage of light microscopes compared to electron microscopes is that light microscopes?
Light microscopes allow you to view living specimens and electron microscopes do not allow this.

What are differences and similarities of sound and light?
sound can travel in vaccum but light cannot travel in vaccum
What are differences between microscopes now and then?
The old microscopes use a mirror and the sun. It has weaker magnifying power and no stage clips. The new ones have a light source that runs on electricity. The magnifying power is stronger and it has stage clips to hold the slide in place.
What are the two types of microscopes?
Light Microscopes And Electron Microscopes
What are two types of microscopes?

What are the 2 main types of microscopes?

Where is the diaphragm on your microscope located?
On most basic microscopes, the diaphragm is located on top of the light source between the light bulb and the stage. On more advanced microscopes, the diaphragm will be between the optic and the light source, although the specific location may vary.
Why are light microscopes also called compound microscopes?
Light microscopes are called compound because a light microscope has more than one lense.
What is the difference between a compound microscope and a light microscopes?
light microscopes shoe only black and white pictures. When a compound microscope shows color when you look through the eye-piece.
What advantage of electron microscopes compared to light microscopes is that electron microscopes?
