How does a simple light microscope work?
It helps you see anything
How does the electrons microscope work?
An electron microscope use a beam of electrons instead visible light as source of illumination.
What makes a microscope work?
There are three types of basic microscopes: Electron Microscopes, Simple Light Microscopes, and Compound Light Microscopes. Simple [light] Microscopes work by focusing light through one lens. The most common lens, the Convex Lens, works by being thicker in the center than the edge. This bends the light, altering the image as it hits the second lens, your retina. A Compound [light] Microscope works differently. It is the most common microscope for everyday use, using a mirror to shine light up through a slide containing a specimin. Next, the ray of light shines up through a series of lenses, bending the light and multiplying the magnification and resolution levels of the image, until it hits your retina. Robert Hooke used a very complex compound microscope to observe cells through a thin slice of cork wood. The Electron Microscope is the most technologically advanced and, in my opinion, the coolest type yet. In fact, the electron microscope was so complex that it was not discovered until the late 1930's. It uses a beam of electrons instead of light to magnify an image. This allows you to get a much closer image with much higher resolution than with a regular light microscope. The most complex light microscope can only magnify an image up to 5000 times. An electron microscope can easily double that, a recently founded electron microscope can magnify an image up to 150,000 times. To work, this microscope actually borrows electrons from atoms, and as long as they return the electrons to the atoms, there is still perfect balance.
What is the function of the power switch in the microscope?
To switch on the microscope, which needs light. Since sunlight isn't as reliable at all times during the day and night, modern microscopes have lamps that require electricity to work.
Does a microscope work due to reflection?
Microscope works due to refraction.

How does a simple microscope work?
A microscope is a tube that holds glass lens mounted that have the right focal properties that magnify the image.
What type of microscope do you use on a amoeba?
A standard optical microscope would be sufficient (as opposed to a scanning electron microscope)
How Do Microscope's Work?

What type of microscope can be used to view non living specimens?
The light microscope and the electron microscope refers to the type of microscope that is used to view the non- living specimen. The non-living specimen is usually placed in a slide.
What is the total magnifying of microscope?
steps on how to work out the total magnifying power of a microscope
Why is the light microscope called a compound microscope?
Because it is made up of more than one lens. A simple microscope is make up of one lens (a hand held magnifying glass can also be considered as a simple microscope). In a compound microscope, one cannot see the magnified image until both the lenses are used.

What kind of microscope do you need to see an ants exoskeleton?
i am not sure of what kind of microscope you need, but not something cheap at all, i can remember that i did this on a really cheap one a couple of years ago, a normal stereo microscope (optic) should work fine ;3
What is the use of mirror to microscope?
A compound microscope can either have a light bulb or a mirror for illumination. If your microscope has a mirror, then you need sunlight or some other light source to point at the mirror to view your slide.The mirror is used to focus light up through the hole in the microscope's stage, or slide platform. The slides will contain a thin slice of material through which the light can shine, to reveal the internal structure of the sample.=========================================Mirrors on the exterior of microscopes are there to reflect ambient light (especially sunlight) under the slide being viewed to illuminate it. These are necessary for microscopes that don't have their own light sources.Mirrors in the interior of the microscope are there to redirect the optics and make the microscope more compact or to facilitate making the microscope binocular.
How does a microscope light work?
allows light to pass through a specimen and was two lenses to form an image.
