What is a Photograph of a specimen taken through a compound light microscope called?
They are called photomicrographs
Why does laboratory uses compound microscope instead of simple microscope?
Only through compound microscope we can observe cells
What produces an image of a specimen by passing visible light through it?
Its a Light Microscope! (=
What are the light source of the microscope for?
to generate light, so the specimen can be examined (sends light through base, diaphragm, stage specimen, slide, objective lens, nose-piece, body, body tube, and eyepiece)
Why are specimen thin?
because the thinner it is the clearer it is too see inside
A photograph of a specimen taken through a compound light microscope is called?
Photomicrograph
What is a Photograph of a specimen taken through a compound light microscope called?

What structure does light pass through after leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope?
Specimen
What structure does a light pass through after leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope?
specimen
What type microscope allows light to pass through the specimen and uses two lenses to form an image?
a compound light microscope
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 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 is used to pass light through a specimen?
microscope
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.
Is the TEM one of the types of a compound microscope?
No, the TEM is a transmission electron microsope which passes a beam of electron particles through an ultra thin specimen in a vacuum producing high magnification. A compound microscope uses ordinary light passed through a series of convex glass lenses with limited magnification.
Why must a specimen be very thin to be viewed under a light microscope?
Light microscope works because light goes *through* your specimen. So if the specimen is too thick, then light won't shine through, and you won't see anything.
What is the function of the wide angle objective lens on a microscope?
An objective lens gathers light passing through the specimen on the microscope and projects the image into the body of the microscope. Objective lens are closest to the specimen.
