What else can I help you with?
When would you use a SEM microscope?
When you want to look at things you couldn't with a light microscope.
If your specimen is too small to be seen with a light microscope you can use an electron microscope?
True.
What scientific tool do you use to observe organelles?
Either a light microscope or an electron microscope can allow you to observe cell organelles.
What types of microscope do scientist use?
compound and light microscopes are used in some labs compound uses a mirror to reflect and a light gives a light source to it
What is different types of microscope?
There are several type of microscopes, mainly, the one that we use in lab is a simple light microscope or a compound microscope. Then we have the phase contrast microscope, fluorescent microscope, electron microscope (transmission electron microscope [TEM] and scanning electron microscope [SEM]), confocal microscope and even dissection microscope the one which we use during dissections.
When would you use a dissecting light microscope instead of a compound light microscope?
You would use a dissecting light microscope when studying larger specimens or objects that require a greater depth of field, such as observing the external features of small organisms or dissected parts of plants or animals. Dissecting microscopes provide lower magnification but offer a larger working distance and stereoscopic view, making them ideal for tasks like dissection and manipulation of objects.
What type of microscope would be used to examine a biopsy of an oral ulcer?
i think it is the light microscope or the dissecting microscope the technician will use only one objective lense x2
What type of microscope aside from the compound light microscopemight you use to observe the organisms found in pond water?
A dissecting microscope - this is used for larger organisms.
What is one advantage of using the dissecting microscope instead of a compound light microscope?
A dissecting microscope has a lower magnification than a compound microscope. A dissecting microscope has a bigger work area so you can use it to magnify and still move around what ever your looking at. A compound microscope would be used to look at cells that you could not see with out intense magnification You would have to use a microscope slide for whatever you wanted to look at. Example: A dissecting microscope would be used to figure out the sex of Fruit flys. While a compound would be used if wanted to see the cells of a the fly's eye
What is the similarities of compound microscope to dissecting microscope?
Both the compound microscope and dissecting microscope use lenses to magnify objects. They both have adjustable focus and are used for viewing specimens in detail, but the compound microscope is more powerful and used for viewing smaller specimens at a cellular level, while the dissecting microscope is used for larger specimens at a lower magnification.
What type of microscope aside from the compound light microscope might you use to observe the organisms found in pond water?
You could use a stereo microscope, also known as a dissecting microscope, to observe organisms found in pond water. This type of microscope provides a three-dimensional view of larger specimens at lower magnifications.
Would a compound light microscope and dissecting microscope be used in the same lab situation?
Yes, it could. If one is working in a lab for the health department for example, both would be useful. One might have a sample and would use the low magnifying dissecting scope to find something of interest and then the compound 'scope for more detail of the it.
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 should one use to observe the aortic arches of an earthworm?
To observe the aortic arches of an earthworm, you can use a dissecting microscope or a magnifying glass. It's advisable to carefully dissect the earthworm to expose the internal structures, including the aortic arches, for better observation.
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.
What characteristics of a dissecting microscope makes it ideal to use for gross examination of specimen?
suitable for viewing large objects
What type of microscope would you use to observe a splinter in the finger?
A light microscope would be suitable to observe a splinter in the finger as it provides enough magnification and resolution to see small objects like splinters. Additionally, a dissecting microscope could also be used for larger splinters to examine them in more detail.
