The light is necessary when you are using a microscope because if you don't have the light turned on, then the object or specimen you would like to examine won't be showing up. The light makes you have the capabiltiy to see what your object looks like under the microscope, and if your light isn't being used, then you will not see your object, probably only darkness!!! (Hope this helped)
What else can I help you with?
Why is oil necessary when using the 100x objective?
Oil is necessary when using the 100x objective in a microscope to increase the resolution and clarity of the image. The oil has a similar refractive index to glass, reducing light refraction and increasing the numerical aperture, allowing for better resolution at high magnifications.
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.
How could you improve the resolution of a microscope?
To improve the resolution of a microscope, you can use a lens with a higher numerical aperture, reduce the wavelength of light used for imaging (such as using blue light instead of red light), and ensure that the microscope is properly focused and aligned. Additionally, using immersion oil between the lens and the specimen can also enhance resolution.
How do you adjust the amount of light that passes though the specimen on a compound microscope?
You can adjust the amount of light that passes through the specimen on a compound microscope by adjusting the condenser. Lowering the condenser increases the amount of light, while raising it decreases the intensity of the light. Additionally, you can also adjust the light intensity using the light source controls on the microscope.
What provides light to allow one to view materials on a glass slide on a microscope?
The light source on a microscope, typically a bulb or LED, provides the necessary illumination to view materials on a glass slide. This light passes through the specimen on the slide, allowing it to be magnified and observed through the microscope's lenses. The intensity and angle of the light can be adjusted to optimize visibility and contrast.
Which is the simplest the light miicroscope or the electron microscope?
light microscope is the simplest, in manufacturing and using
Can the eukaryotic nucleus be seen with an light microscope?
The density of the nucleus can be seen using the light microscope, because the light microscope enlarges or makes the nucleus bigger.
Which virus can be seen by light microscope?
None can. They have to be seen using a electron microscope.
What is the difference between a optical microscope and a non- optical microscope?
light is must for optical microscope while is not necessary for nonn optical one
What did Robert Hooke identify using a light microscope?
you...
Why ribosome is unable to be seen using a ligt microscope?
ribosomes are not seen by using a light microscope bcz of its small size
Which structures in the nucleus can you identify using an electron microscope that you cannot identify using a light microscope?
Using an electron microscope allows you to identify structures within the nucleus, such as nuclear pores, nuclear lamina, and nucleoli, which are not visible under a light microscope due to their smaller size and lack of contrast in light microscopy. Additionally, electron microscopy can reveal fine details of chromatin organization and nuclear envelope structure that are not easily resolved with a light microscope.
What kind of microscope is found in most classrooms?
Optical, though to see smaller organelles and structures in higher resolution an electron microscope may be necessary.
What is the basic requirement for you to see an object using the microscope?
The basic requirement for you to see an object using the microscope is light. The amount of light will determine the visibility of the specimen.
How do you increase the contrast between the nucleus and the cell contents using a light microscope?
You can't change the contrast on the microscope, that would have to be done using dyes.
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.
Pros and cons of using compound microscope?
it has light limited magnification
