What is the difference of compound microscope to digital microscope?
The compound microscope is the simple microscope used in the early days for higher magnification to view specimens such as cells. The compound microscope is the standard microscope used commonly nowadays. The digital microscope is a type of optical microscope which makes use of camera and optics to be able to view the images from the microscope to the computer.
The type of microscope that focuses beams of electrons on specimens is the?
compound light microscope
Can you use food colouring to dye specimens for a microscope slide?
Idgaf
What are the Kinds of microscopes and their uses?
There there are many. Simple microscope, compound microscope, light microscope, scanning electron microscope, TEMicroscope, Dissection microscope, etc and most of them are used to see small cells that cannot be seen by the naked eye.
Which type of microscope can observe non-living cells?
A tunneling electron microscope cannot image live specimens.
What microscope provides the greatest magnification of preserved living specimens?
Transmission electron microscope
What distortions or artifacts might be seen in electron microscopy when viewing a dried nonliving specimen?
Smaller characteristics of specimens might be seen using electron microscopy to view a dried nonliving specimen. The electron microscope is used to view specimens in great detail.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of compound microscope?
advantage: cheap, multiple lenses, can look at live specimens. disadvantage: poor resolution, poor magnification

What is the maximum magnification of a SEM?
A scanning electron microscope has a very large depth of field which makes the images produced appear three dimensional. Magnifications from 25X to 250,000X (250 times the magnification limit of a light microscope) are possible. Although my Science Text book says it can reach a magnification of 300 000X, but most specimens are easier to view at magnification less than 10 000X.
What does it mean for a microscope to be parcentered?
When a microscope is parcentered, the specimens will appear centered in the field of view at every magnification. So if a field of a slide is centered at the lowest power, even though the field diameter shrinks at each higher magnification, the desired part of the specimen will remain in the center of the viewing field.
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.
The type of microscope that focuses beams of electrons on specimens is the?
compound light microscope
What is used for examining extremely small specimens?
Microscope?
What is the function of the camera of a microscope?
Taking pictures of specimens.
A newspaper ad for a local toy store indicates that a very inexpensive microscope available for a small child is able to magnify specimens nearly as much as the much more costly microscope available y?
The child's microscope may have the same magnification, but does not have the same type of lens or fine tuning available on better microscopes. The image may be somewhat distorted.
What do the objective lense do on a microscope?
The objective lenses on a microscope collects light and brings the specimens into focus.
