What microscope is used to see details of a 300 nm virus?
electron microscope
What type microscope is used to see cilia?
Electron microscope.
Which microscope is used to see the cross section of a stem?
a compound microscope or an electronic microscope will do.
Which microscope is used to see intracellular detail in a living cell?
two-photo microscope
What kind of microscope can be used to study organelles?
A light microscope is sufficient to see the shape of the cell and it's nucleus. However to see the smaller organelles, you would want to use an electron microscope.
What microscope is used to see details of a 300 nm virus?
electron microscope
Is Swine Flu caused by microorganisms?
Swine flu is caused by a virus. Viruses are submicroscopic organisms that are so small they can only be "seen" with an electron microscope. A regular microscope does not allow us to see things as small as a virus particle. See the related questions below for additional information about the pathogen that causes the H1N1/09 swine flu.
Is the flu a protist?
No. The flu (influenza) is caused by a virus. See related questions below.
Can you see the Swine Flu?
You can't with the naked eye because they are submicroscopic particles, but with electron microscopes they can be seen. See the related link below for a picture of the virus taken through an electron microscope.
What do you nee to see a virus?
Electron microscope
What ways help you see a cold virus?
Using an electron microscope will help you see a virus.
What tool is necessary to actually see a virus?
An electron microscope is necessary to actually see a virus.
What kind of electromagnetic radiation could be used to see a virus?
An electron microscope can be used to see a virus. MRI's now exist that can see inside viruses. If you visit Florida State University, they have one.
Can you see virus with the naked eye?
Since a virus is far smaller than a typical cell (much smaller than a prokaryote) a virus cannot be seen by a regular microscope. To see a virus, you should get an electron microscope.
What do you need to see a virus?
a powerful electron microscope
Would you use a stereomicroscope or compound light microscope or electron microscope to see a virus?
A virus of 50nm would be too small to see unless an electron microscope was used because it has greater resolving power and a resolution up to .1nm. A microscope using compound light as the means of illumination could not resolve better than approx. 200nms.
Would A virologist would likely be able to see viral particles with a light microscope?
No, an electron microscope is needed to see a virus.
