What reason best explains why dead specimens must be used with transmission electron microscopes?
I don't know, sorry.
Why can't you view living cells through electron microscope?
"In electron microscope the object is viewed in highly vaccum conditions. Living cells would disentegrate in such a condition." This answer is not mine it comes from the "why can't electron microscopes be used to view cell structures" question
Why are transmission positron microscope and acoustic microscope important for understanding how living cells function?
Because only the Transmission Position Microscopes and the Acoustic Microscopes are able to magnify living specimen while the Electron Microscope has the major disadvantage of only being able to magnify dried, frozen, and dead specimen. We also wouldn't be able to learn much about living cells.
Is an electron microscope used to magnify a living specimen?
An EM is basically of 2 types. Scanning Electron Microscope and Transmission Electron Microscope. Yes definitely it is used to magnify and resolve specimens but a living specimen cannot be used. Only dead are used. This is due to certain disadvantages that come along with this microscope. If need further details over the microscope uses and types then let me know.yea...i completely agree wif yuh... :)
Why do forensic scientists use microscopes?
go away maaaaaaaaaan i love ASTON MERRYGOLD HE DEAD HOT

What is a limitación of using electrón microscopes to view specimens?
The specimen must be dead. Electron microscopes view specimens in a vacuum- no air.

Why are transmission positron microscopes and acoustic microscopes important tools For understanding how cells function?
Because only the Transmission Position Microscopes and the Acoustic Microscopes are able to magnify living specimen while the Electron Microscope has the major disadvantage of only being able to magnify dried, frozen, and dead specimen. We also wouldn't be able to learn much about living cells.

Why might a microscopist who specializes in the use of microscopes to examine specimens use a light microscope instead of an electron microscope?
An electron microscope requires that the subject be dead to function. In order to receive a picture, the specimen must be coated in chemicals and put into a vacuum, a process which will kill any living specimen. A light microscope, although not as detailed, will allow the scientist to observe living specimens.

What types of objects can be studied with a light microscopes. what types can be studied with an electron microscopes?
Light microscopes are used to study living organism and to watch and analyze their structures. Electron microscopes use a dead specimen and are able to observe structures in great detail and with much much higher magnification. +++The electron microscope has a far higher definition and magnification than an optical microscope could achieve, but as you say you could not use it to study a living organism.
What conditions would you use a compound light microscope and each type of electron microscope?
light microscope make it possible to study dead organisms and their parts, and to observe some tiny organisms and cells while they are still alive. TEMs a type of electron microscope can reveal a wealth of detail inside the cell.SEMs another type of electron microscope produce realistic, and often dramatic,three-dimensional images of the surfaces of objects. however electron microscopes only work with preserved dead and dehydrated specimens.
What major advantage does a transmission electron microscope have over a compound light microscope?
The Compund light microscope allows people to view living cells. With the electron light microscope peole can only view dead cells but with very high detail. The electron microscope is also much more expensive than a compound ligh microscope. The compound light microscope is also much easier to transport from place to place, as the electron microscope is not.
