    use of light and electron microscopes in biological studies. Microscopes are laboratory equipment which are used to observe any matter that is too small to be seen by the naked eye. There are several types of microscopes – the two most common being the optical microscope‚ also known as a light microscope‚ and the electron microscope‚ which can be either a transmission electron microscope (TEM) or a scanning electron microscope (SEM). There are more differences than similarities between light microscopes

    2012 COMPOUND MICROSCOPE A compound microscope is an optical instrument used to see objects that are too small for the naked eye. A compound microscope is a microscope fitted with two or more convex lenses. The high magnification produced by these lenses together enables a detailed study of micro-organisms‚ cells and tissues. These types of microscopes are therefore widely used in scientific and medical research. The basic design of a compound light microscope consists of convex

    Microscopes and Microscopy Introduction The purpose for including a lab on microscopy in his course is because it is a very important tool in making detailed observations. This lab helps the average person realize that there is much more to things than what you see with the naked eye. In the field of human biology microscopes are very important for many reasons. In the late 1500’s a scientist named Zacharias Janssen created the first microscope of it kind and now we have several microscopes

    Introduction Microscopes have brought to light a new realm of information that originally laid dormant and invisible to the naked eye. It has enhanced biology and brought forth great advancements into the study of living organisms. Many discoveries have been achieved through the microscope. One of the major ones is the cell theory that we have talked about in this chapter. Having a microscope enables us to study even the smallest of details in organisms and allows us to conduct research. Another

    An electron microscope is a type of microscope that produces an electronically-magnified image of a specimen for detailed observation. The electron microscope (EM) uses a particle beam of electrons to illuminate the specimen and create a magnified image of it. The microscope has a greater resolving power than a light-powered optical microscope‚ because it uses electrons that have wavelengths about 100‚000 times shorter than visible light (photons)‚ and can achieve magnifications of up to 1‚000‚000x

    Compound Microscope Parts A high power or compound microscope achieves higher levels of magnification than a stereo or low power microscope. It is used to view smaller specimens such as cell structures which cannot be seen at lower levels of magnification. Essentially‚ a compound microscope consists of structural and optical components. However‚ within these two basic systems‚ there are some essential components that every microscopist should know and understand. These key microscope parts are illustrated

    1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the different types of light and electron microscopes discussed in Chapter 3 that are used to study microorganisms? Focus your response in terms of the following parameters The disadvantage of using a light microscope is its inability to magnify a specimen as great as an electron microscope. An electron microscope can magnify up to 500‚000 times‚ whereas‚ a light microscope can only magnify an object up to 2000 times. The resolving power or resolving
