Why do you cut a very thin slice of specimen to look under light microscope?

The light is reflected upwards, and passes through the specimen. It passes through easier (clearer) if the specimen is not too thick.


A microscope that has a tube with its lenses a stage and a light source?

compound light microscope (light passes through the specimen and produces a flat image)


What structure on a microscope controls the amount of light that passes through the specimen?

The diaphram Is What Controls How Much Light Is Released.


Microscope parts and its function?

eye piece-To increase or decrease the magnification of a telescope=body tube-Holds the ocular at one end and the nosepiece at the other==coarse adjustment-near focus when erotated into position and will only need the fine adjustment for a sharp image==arm or pillar-supports the body tube and lenses==nose piece-holds the objectives==objectives-the selected lens is rotated into position by turning the nose piece==fine adjustment-it is used to focus on the specimen==base-supports the entire microscope==stage-where you place your slide==stage support a slide==mirror-makes the specimen easier to see==inclination points-is used to tilt the microscope==diaphragm-is used to regulate the amount of light that passes through==slide- where you put the specimen in=


Explain why an inverted image is seen under a compound microscope?

The microscope you are using is probably old, and it has an odd number of convex lenses between the object and your eye. in addition to enlarging (or reducing) an image, an optical convex lense also inverts the image. If you were to invert the inverted image again, using another lense, then the resulting image will appear upright. So a microscpope with three lenses (most likely the number of lenses in the microscope you are using) inverts the image three times, resulting in an upside-down image. A microscope with four lenses shows an upgright image. That is why modern microscope manufacturers use an even number of lenses in a microscope (and in binoculars).

What is transmission electron microscopes?

A transmission electron microscope (TEM) is a microscope in which a beam of electrons is transmitted through an ultra-thin specimen, interacting with the specimen as it passes through it.

Why is it important for the slide to be prepared so that light passes through it?

If your microscope is a Transmission Microscope then light has to pass through the specimen (that is how the microscope works).Other kinds of microscopes may not require this.

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.


What is an Abbe condenser?

An Abbe condenser is a condenser composed of two lenses which concentrates and controls the light which passes through a specimen before the light enters the objective of a microscope.

How do we increase the amount of light that passes through the specimen?

The amount of light that is directed from the bottom of an optical microscope through a specimen can be increased by using a stronger bulb or light source. A potentiometer can be used to dim or increase the strength of the light source.
