What is the difference with the condenser lens in a light microscope and a electron microscope?

In a light microscope, the condenser lens focuses and directs light onto the specimen to illuminate it. In an electron microscope, the condenser lens focuses and directs a beam of electrons onto the specimen to create the image. The electron microscope uses electromagnetic lenses to manipulate the electron beam, while the light microscope uses glass lenses to manipulate light.


Which is a feature of a light microscope and is not a feature of a scanning or transmission electron microscope?

When Light traveling through a microscope enables the viewer to observe tiny objects because the lenses what?

When light travels through a microscope, the lenses in the microscope focus the light into a small area, increasing the magnification of the object being observed. The lenses bend light rays, allowing the viewer to see the object clearly and in greater detail than with the naked eye. This enhanced magnification and resolution is what enables the observation of tiny objects through a microscope.


What do the lenses on a microscope do to the light as it passes through them - and how does this affect the way an object appears when the light reaches your eye?

The lenses in a microscope diffract (bend) the light as it passes through them. The effect is that an object appears clear and large (is focused and magnified) when the light reaches your eye. Also, microscope designs usually ensure that the object appears right-side-up.
