Why cant opaque objects be veiwed under a compound microscope?
That is certainly not true. A "compound" microscope is one that has an objective AND an ocular. Typically the front focal distance is so short that illumination through the specimen is most common. A "simple" microscope has only one magnifying lens group, not two or more. Short front focus makes lighting from the side more difficult but not impossible or even rare.
What is the function of a stain in microscope work?
As the cells are transparent, the components cannot be seen clearly through a microscope. We stain the cell so that we can see the components of the cell clearly through a microscope.
Is it possible to photograph microscopic images through the eye piece of the microscope directly using an ordinary digital camera and get fairly good quality digital images?
Scan the negatives or prints. Adequate scanners are available for less than $100 if your media are 11 X 14' or smaller.
What elements of art help lead the viewer's eye through the photograph?
emotional attitude and act..
How does a microscope work?
Light waves are bent as they travel through glass increasing the ability to see items at a much more magnified level. First, we have to light up the specimen. A mirror mounted under the microscope stand does the job. Light bounces off the mirror, passes through and around our specimen (mounted firmly to a microscope slide), and into the objective lenses. These lenses bend some of the spread out light beams from the specimen into straight line paths that travel through the microscope tube. Next, the light beams reach the eyepiece lenses. These lenses bend the light back into your eye, so you can see the specimen up close.
What is a Photograph of a specimen taken through a compound light microscope called?
A photograph of a specimen taken through a compound light microscope is called a photomicrograph.
What structure does light pass through after leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope?
After leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope, light passes through the specimen on the slide.
What type microscope allows light to pass through the specimen and uses two lenses to form an image?
a compound light microscope
Why is a compound microscope called a light microscope?
A compound light microscope is named for the use of more than one lens to collect and focus light, and magnify the image.
How do you adjust the amount of light that passes through the specimen on a compound microscope?
You can adjust the amount of light passing through the specimen on a compound microscope by using the iris diaphragm located beneath the stage. By opening or closing the iris diaphragm, you can control the intensity of light reaching the specimen. Adjusting the light can help enhance the contrast and visibility of the specimen.
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 structure does a light pass through after leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope?
After leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope, the light passes through the specimen on the slide. The light is then refracted and magnified by the objective lens, and further magnified by the eyepiece before reaching the eye of the observer.
A microscope that has a tube with its lenses a stage and a light source?
It sounds like you are describing a compound light microscope. This type of microscope uses lenses in the tube to magnify the image, a stage to hold the specimen, and a light source to illuminate the specimen for viewing. It is commonly used in laboratories for observing microscopic specimens.
What microscope works by passing light through a specimen then through 2 lenses?
A compound light microscope works by passing light through a specimen and then through two lenses - an objective lens and an ocular lens. This type of microscope is commonly used in laboratories for viewing transparent or translucent specimens at high magnification.
Which part of a compound light microscope should a student adjust to allow more light to pass through a specimen?
The student should adjust the condenser to allow more light to pass through the specimen in a compound light microscope. By adjusting the condenser height or iris diaphragm, the amount of light reaching the specimen can be controlled for better visibility.
What type of energy does the compound microscope use?
A compound microscope typically uses light energy, specifically visible light, to illuminate the sample being observed. This light passes through the lenses of the microscope to magnify and visualize the specimen.
What is a photograph of the view through a microscope?
micrograph
