Light Microscope (LM)
1. What microscope uses visible light that is
passed through a specimen & then through
glass lenses?
2. How do "Light Microscopes (LM)" work? Lenses refract
(bend) light, so that
the image is
magnified
3. What are the three important Magnification,
parameters of mi-croscopy? Resolution, & Contrast
4. Light microscopes can magnify effectively to about? 1,000 times the
size of the
actual specimen
5. What Electron Microscope (EM) creates 3D Scanning Electron
images of specimens? Mi-croscopy
(SEM)
6. What Electron Microscope (EM) is used mainly to study Transmission
Electron Mi-
the internal structure of cells?
7. What takes
cells apart &
separates
the major
