One difference between a magnifying glass and a compound light microscope is that a magnifying glass uses one lens to magnify an object while a compound microscope uses two or more lenses. Another difference is that magnifying glasses can be used to view opaque and transparent objects, but a co...
it’s because of the phenomenon known as reflection. light waves, sound waves, and water waves can undergo reflection. in this session, let us learn about the reflection of light and the types of reflection in detail. what is reflection of light? when a ray of light approaches a smooth ...
The microscope is an essential laboratory tool that allows us to magnify and observe very small specimens, such as cells and their various organelles. The most common type of microscope used in the science laboratory is a compound light microscope....
Light microscopy Microbiologists often desire to determine the morphology of the species that they study. The microscope is the tool that allows them to see the organisms that they study because of the magnifying power of the lenses. Answer and Explanation:1 ...
To get an image at a greater magnification you need something with a shorter wavelength than visible light, such as electrons. One of the types of microscopes that uses electrons for magnification is called the scanning electron microscope (SEM). In this lesson we're going to learn how these...
A tube with lenses to magnify and focus light The telescope allowed him to see the craters on the moon. 3 Microscope A microscope (from the Ancient Greek: μικρός, mikrós, "small" and σκοπεῖν, skopeîn, "to look" or "see") is a laboratory instrument used to ex...
but they have an essential difference. A binocularcompound microscopehas one objective and a matching pair of eyepieces. Aprismis used to split the beam of light from the image formed by the objective to each eye. This is not the same as a stereo microscope, even though it has two eyepi...

Water is a compound (because it's two different chemical elements joined together), but it's also a molecule because it's made by combining atoms. The way to remember it is like this: compounds are elements joined together and molecules are atoms joined together. Not all molecules are as ...
Place the slide under the microscope and view under immersion oil -compound light microscopeorphase-contrast microscopemay be used to view the cells. When viewed under the microscope, one may observe the following, depending on the species: ...
