yes you do need light to so things in microscope
------------------------
In a compound microscope the light is transmitted through the object therefore the object must be very thin to allow the light through. They are called thin sections and mounted to a glass slide.
A stereo microscope uses incident light, bounced off of the object's surface.
In either case, no light means no image.
You can use electric light sources of many kinds; LEDs, halogen, incandescent, Mercury vapor are just a few. You can use a mirror to reflect any kind of light including bright light from a window, a candle, a desk lamp, whatever.

What else can I help you with?
To see objects smaller that those that can be resolved by a light microscope. You usually use microscope's that employ a beam of?
You can use an electron microscope to view objects smaller than light photons, which uses electrons as the name suggests
What do things that are to small for a light microscope get viewed by?
Things that are too small for a light microscope, such as viruses and molecules, can be viewed using an electron microscope. Electron microscopes use a beam of electrons instead of light to magnify objects at a much higher resolution than light microscopes.
What is the source of magnification in light microscope?
The source of magnification in a light microscope is the combination of the objective lens and the eyepiece lens. The objective lens gathers light from the specimen and forms an initial image, which is further magnified by the eyepiece lens to allow for detailed viewing by the observer.
What is the light source for the SEM system?
The light source for a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is emitted by a heated tungsten filament or a field emission gun. These sources produce a beam of electrons that is focused and scanned across the sample to generate the image.
What is the Illuminating parts of compound microscope?
A compound microscope can either have a light bulb or a mirror. If yours has a light bulb, turn it on to view your slide. You can't use the light in your room or lab to view your slide, because you will block all that light when you use the microscope. If your microscope has a mirror then you might need a another light source to point at the mirror to view your slide.
Why can't opaque objects be observed using a light microscope?
Opaque objects do not let light pass through them, so they block the light needed for the microscope to form an image. This prevents the microscope from capturing a clear image of the object. As a result, opaque objects appear dark and featureless when viewed under a light microscope.
What does a light source do on microscope?
It
What tool is used for seeing it has a tube lenses a stage and a light source?
A microscope is the tool used for observing specimens with a tube lens, a stage for holding the specimen, and a light source for illumination. Microscopes magnify and allow detailed observation of small objects or structures that are not visible to the naked eye.
Which objects is used to focus light in a light microscope?
Adjustment knobs are used to focus light in a light microscope.
When handling a microscope what do I check if I don’t see enough light?
IF YOU HAVE A MICROSCOPE THAT DOES NOT HAVE AN INTERNAL LIGHT SOURCE, YOU WILL HAVE TO USE THE EXTERNAL LIGHT SOURCE THAT IS PROVIDED IN THE CABINET WITH THE MICROSCOPE.
What can you observe under a light microscope?
Under a light microscope, you can observe small objects such as cells, bacteria, and other microorganisms. The microscope uses light to magnify these objects, allowing you to see them in detail.
What kind of microscope has a tube with lenses a stage and a light source?
compound light microscope
How many times larger can an electron microscope magnify more than a light microscope?
An electron microscope can magnify objects up to 1,000,000 times, while a light microscope can typically magnify objects up to 2,000 times. This means an electron microscope can magnify objects 500 times larger than a light microscope.
What part of the microscope produces light?
The light source of a microscope produces light that passes through the specimen being observed. It can be a bulb, LED, or mirror.
What is the source of radiation of a dissecting microscope?
The source of radiation in a dissecting microscope is typically a halogen or LED light bulb. These light sources emit visible light that is used to illuminate the specimen being observed through the microscope.
What kind of light source does your microscope have?
mirroor
What is the type of light source that reflects light rays for a microscope?
The type of light source that reflects light rays for a microscope is typically a mirror or a prism. These components are used to direct and focus light onto the specimen being viewed through the microscope.
