What are dissecting probes used for?
They are used to move around stuff in the specimen so that you can see the inside of it clearly.
What are the differences between a microscope and a hand lens?
When viewing a specimen through a hand lens, you can see in slightly greater detail than your naked eye, but you may not be able to see micro organisms. With a microscope, you can see things in MUCH greater detail, and you can see micro organisms. With a hand lens, you cannot change the power of magnification, while with a microscope, you can change the power of the magnification. With a hand lens, only one lens is used to magnify an object, while a compound microscope uses two lenses (one in objective lens, one in eyepiece). With a hand lens, you can view a specimen from far away, while an objective lens has to be fairly close to a specimen in order to view it clearly. With a hand lens, you can simply move your hand forward, or backward, to focus on an object. With a microscope, a very complex mechanism is used in order to portray some sort of depth while viewing. This is adjusted by using a coarse, and a fine adjustment knob.
What can you put on a specimen to make it easier to see through the microscope?
phenyle blue was a common dye used in biology when I was in college. You need to check to see what the particular item you are wanting to look at will react with first, though.
Why should the specimen be thin while making a wet mount slide?
To examine it under the microscope, the specimen needs to be illuminated by either a light underneath or a stream of electrons. If the specimen is too thick, and light or electrons cannot penetrate it, the scientist will be unable to see any detail.
When you see a specimen clearly down a microscope it is in an onion?

What is the function of a light on a microscope?

How is a microscope helpful in observation?
to see micro organism specimen
What is the function of a light source on a microscope?
It allows you to see the specimen.
Why do you use coverslips?
So that we can protect the microscope and see the specimen properly.
What refers to the amount of a specimen you are able to see in a microscope?
Field of view
Advantages and disadvantages of light microscope over electron microscope?
they are relatively smaller, electron ones are biggerthey are easy to usethey allow you to see coloured images, electron ones don'tyou can observe live specimen, specimen has to be dead with electron microscopesi was trying to view the answer in relation to transmmission
