What is lens of light microscope?
optical microscope
Who invented light microscope?
Robert Hooke invented the first light microscope
Who invented the light microscope in the 1600s?
The Light Microscope was invented by Wilford Thompson in 1876
What is another name for the light microscope?
Optical Microscope
Which microscope is used to observe a specimen that emits light when illuminated with an ultra-violet light?
Fluorescent microscope
What can be seen under a electron microscope and not a light microscope?
An electron microscope has a much higher magnifying power and resolution than a regular light microscope. One can visualize molecules and even atoms using an electron microscope. This is not possible with a light microscope
What does a mirror do on a microscope if there isn't a light?
it's supposed to reflect sunlight (or other light sources) into the lens.
Compare the sources of the beam in light microscope and electron microscopes?
Sample illumination is achieved in different ways in a light and electron microscope.In a light microscope, the sample is illuminates with light (photon energy)In an electron microscope, the sample is illuminated by a beam of electrons.Devon
Which would enable you to study the membranes of a chloroplast?
It would be a light microscope. Or according to my sources.
What is a transmission electron microscope used for?
The transmission electron microscope operates on the same principle as the light microscope but uses electrons instead of light. What you can see with a light microscope is limited by the wavelength of light. Transmission electron microscopes use electrons as "light source" and their much lower wavelength makes it possible to get a resolution a thousand times better than with light microscope.
How is it possible to study viruses under the light microscope?
impossible is nothing
What came first electron microscope or light microscope?
compound light microscope - cell theory - electron microscope
What is a transmission electron microscope used for diagnosis?
The transmission electron microscope operates on the same principle as the light microscope but uses electrons instead of light. What you can see with a light microscope is limited by the wavelength of light. Transmission electron microscopes use electrons as "light source" and their much lower wavelength makes it possible to get a resolution a thousand times better than with light microscope.
Why do scientists get the thinnest possible sample to look at in a microscope?
depending on what microscope, a beam of light or electron bean has to be able to permeate parts of the sample
What microscope uses visible light?
The light microscope uses visible light. Light microscopes are what are usually used in science classrooms.
How does an electron microscope differs from a light microscope?
The light microscope use the visible light; the electron microscope use an electrons beam.
What was the instrument that made cell exploration possible microscope?
Yes. Both the light microscope and the electron micrope helped to uncover the cell anatomy and functions.
