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.
Types of microscope and their uses?
Compound microscopes can be found in most biology and science classrooms. They are electrically operated and use light to enhance the image of a cell. They will have multiple lenses for viewing.Dissecting microscopes are also known as stereo microscopes. They have low magnification and are also light powered. These microscopes can view objects larger than what a compound microscope is able to handle, in three dimensions.Scanning Electron Microscopes use electrons instead of light to create an image. These microscopes produce three-dimensional images with high resolution and magnification. They also have a larger depth of focus.Transmission Electron Microscopes use electrons instead of light to create an image. The material prepared must be very thin. The beams of electrons that pass through it give the viewer high magnification and resolution. These give two-dimensional images.Electron microscopes are one of the most advanced microscopes used today. This microscope is powered by a beam of electrons with very short wavelengths. These electrons strike objects that come in its path and helps increase the resolution of the microscope. The electron microscope is one of the types of microscopes used to study cells like tiny viral cells as well as larger molecules.
What kind of microscope is used to view living specimens?
a TEM (transmission Electron Microscope) shoots electrons through the specimen and shows internal features of the cella SEM (scanning electron microscope) Electrons bounce off of the surface of the specimen, and show a 3d image of the surface on the specimen.a STEM (scanning tunneling electron microscope) uses a needle like probe shoots electrons from the inside out, shows 3D surface image CAN be used on living specimens
What structure does light pass through after leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope?
Specimen
A microscope that has a tube with its lenses a stage and a light source?
compound light microscope (light passes through the specimen and produces a flat image)
What is the major function of each major part of a compound and dissecting microscope?
The compound microscope consists of an arm to support base, lens to see through, stage to place the slides, illuminator for steady light and rack stop for adjustment. A dissecting microscope consists of diopter for adjustment, lens for viewing, focus knob for focusing on the subject and rotating objective turret for zoom control.
What are the functions and parts of the microscope?
There are many parts of a dissecting microscope, which is used for viewing microscopic specimens up close. One of the most important parts are the ocular lenses, which are usually capable of up to 10x magnification, and they are the eyepieces the viewer looks through.

Why does laboratory uses compound microscope instead of simple microscope?
Only through compound microscope we can observe cells
Can a water molecule be seen through a compound light microscope?
No

A photograph of a specimen taken through a compound light microscope is called?
Photomicrograph
What is the difference between a compound microscope and a light microscopes?
light microscopes shoe only black and white pictures. When a compound microscope shows color when you look through the eye-piece.
What type microscope allows light to pass through the specimen and uses two lenses to form an image?
a compound light microscope
What structure does light pass through after leaving the condenser in a compound light microscope?
Specimen
What is a Photograph of a specimen taken through a compound light microscope called?
They are called photomicrographs
