We use microscopes to study things that are to small for the naked eye to see. We study living things through microscopes by studying small parts of them such as a hair or a scale to observe their cells. Microscopes can also be used to study an organism's DNA.

A microscope technique that allows you to see specific parts of living specimen is?

One technique that allows you to see specific parts of living specimens is fluorescence microscopy. This technique uses a fluorescent dye that binds to specific components within the cell, producing a fluorescent signal that can be visualized under a microscope. By targeting specific structures or molecules, researchers can visualize and study specific parts of living cells.

Can SEM microscopes view living cells?

SEM microscopes cannot view living cells because they require a high vacuum environment to operate, which would cause the cells to dehydrate and die. For viewing living cells, scientists typically use other techniques such as light microscopy or confocal microscopy that can be performed under conditions that keep the cells alive.


Which organelles are visible under an electron microscope but not under a light microscope?

Organelles like ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus are visible under an electron microscope but not under a light microscope due to their smaller size and lack of observable detail at the resolution of a light microscope.
