17. Lesson Overview Lesson Overview Life Is Cellular Exploring the Cell How do microscopes work? Most microscopes use lenses to magnify the image of an object by focusing light or electrons.

19. Lesson Overview Lesson Overview Life Is Cellular Light Microscopes and Cell Stains A typical light microscope allows light to pass through a specimen and uses two lenses to form an image. Two types: Dissecting (low) and Compound (high) The first set of lenses, located just above the specimen, produces an enlarged image of the specimen. The second set of lenses magnifies this image still further. Because light waves are diffracted, or scattered, as they pass through matter, light microscopes can produce clear images of objects only to a magnification of about 1000 times.

20. Lesson Overview Lesson Overview Life Is Cellular Light Microscopes and Cell Stains Another problem with light microscopy is that most living cells are nearly transparent, making it difficult to see the structures within them. Using chemical stains or dyes can usually solve this problem. Some of these stains are so specific that they reveal only compounds or structures within the cell.

21. Lesson Overview Lesson Overview Life Is Cellular Electron Microscopes Light microscopes can be used to see cells and cell structures as small as 1 millionth of a meter. To study something smaller than that, scientists need to use electron microscopes. Electron microscopes use beams of electrons, not light, that are focused by magnetic fields. Electron microscopes offer much higher resolution than light microscopes. There are two major types of electron microscopes: transmission and scanning.

22. Lesson Overview Lesson Overview Life Is Cellular Electron Microscopes Transmission electron microscopes make it possible to explore cell structures and large protein molecules. Because beams of electrons can only pass through thin samples, cells and tissues must be cut first into ultra thin slices before they can be examined under a transmission electron microscope. Transmission electron microscopes produce flat, two-dimensional images.

23. Lesson Overview Lesson Overview Life Is Cellular Electron Microscopes In scanning electron microscopes, a pencil-like beam of electrons is scanned over the surface of a specimen. Because the image is of the surface, specimens viewed under a scanning electron microscope do not have to be cut into thin slices to be seen. Scanning electron microscopes produce three-dimensional images of the specimen’s surface.
