A scanning tunneling microscope can show detailed surface structures but the organism must be prepared by being plated with a very thin layer of metal. Most organisms can't survive this process. To see a three dimensional image of a living organism you should select a stereo microscope.

What instruments produces highly magnified three dimensional images of a cells surface?

A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is used to produce highly magnified three-dimensional images of a cell's surface. It produces detailed views of the surface features by scanning a focused beam of electrons across the specimen.


The best reason for using a scanning electron microscope?

The scanning electron microscope provides high-resolution images with excellent depth of field, making it ideal for detailed surface analysis at the nanoscale level. Additionally, it can provide information on surface morphology, topography, and elemental composition through x-ray analysis.


What are the main structural differences between the compound light microscope and the stereoscopic microscope?

Stereoscopic microscopes, also called low-power microscopes, dissection microscopes, or inspection microscopes, are designed for viewing "large" objects at low magnifications. Unlike a compound microscope which provides an inverted 2-dimensional image, stereo microscopes provide an erect (upright and unreversed) stereoscopic (3-dimensional) image......


What Microscope that gives 3-D image?

There are at least two types of microscope that can give 3D images. Confocal microscopes that use lasers to illuminate the object and scanning electron microcopes (SEM) that use an electron beam. A SEM can give better magnification than confocal but confocal can image live moving subjects. In SEM the object of intrest must be coated with gold so only dead things can be imaged.


What does each net represent?

A net is a 2-dimensional pattern of a 3-dimensional shape that can be cut and folded to form the shape. Each face of the 3-dimensional shape is represented by a different side of the net.

What techniques helped artist create 3 dimensional images?

3 dimensional (3D) images can be created using holography. They can also be created by artists by using media such as clay or stone, as with sculptures. These techniques provide depth to art images and pieces.


What is a stereoscope?

A stereoscope is a type of viewing device. It allows for the creation of a 3-dimensional image from a set of 2-dimensional images.

Advantages of scanning elecctron microscope?

A Scanning Electron Microscope of SEM is a type of electron microscope that images a surface with high-energy electrons. These electrons interact with the atoms in the sample to produce signals that relate to the sample's surface topology and electrical composition. The main advantages of a SEM vs a typical light microscope - are the very large increase in overall resolution, generally hundreds of times great than what is possible with a light microscope. Also the exceptionally deep depth of field that allows one to display an almost 3 dimensional image, that allows one to study the surface structure of the sample.
