Why is the specimen prepared for a monocular microscope must be very thin?
because the specimen is always thin
Why must the prepared specimen for a monocular microscope be very thin?
The specimen prepared for a monocular microscope must be very thin so light can pass through it easily. The light then goes through a series of lenses that magnifies the specimen to appear bigger
How thin must a specimen be in order to view it on a microscope slide?
Thin enough for light to pass through it.
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.
In what kind of microscope the specimen is coated with a thin film of a heavy metal usually gold then observed by using an electron beam that is directed down on the?
a scanning electron microscope

Why is it important for a specimen viewed under the microscope to be thin?
A specimen being viewed under a microscope should be thin so that light can pass through the specimen. The thinner it is the brighter it will be. A thick specimen will block the light and all you'll get is a dark grey image. Also, more detail can be seen in a thin specimen because there will not be parts in front of each other, blocking the view.

'uses of microtome in histology'?
Microtomes are used to cut very thin slices of a specimen in order to examine the specimen microscopically.
What is stageclips?
a stage clip is a thin piece of glass where you place your specimen.
What is the thin piece of glass put on the top of the specimen?
It's called a slide.
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.
What is the name of the thin glass plate that is placed on top of a specimen in microscope?
Cover slip
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 there a control specimen?
There is a control specimen because you need something to compare the experimeny to'
