Multiple Choice
Students use a compound microscope to view unicellular organisms collected from pond water. Which statement describes why using a light microscope is better to view the structures of these organisms that a dissecting microscopes?
Compound light microscopes use visible light
Compound light microscopes have higher magnification
Compound light microscopes allow living things to be viewed
Compound light microscopes use electron beams to generate images
26
Multiple Choice
Which invention from the 17th century allowed for the development of modern cell theory?
X-rays
computers
the light microscope
the scanning electron microscope
27
The light microscope allowed scientists to view actual cells for the first time.
28
Transmission light microscopes are high magnification and can see details inside of cells including organelles, that compound light microscopes and dissecting microscopes cannot. Scanning microscopes can only show the exterior surface, so a mitochondria inside of cells would not be visible.
29
Both compound light microscopes and dissecting microscopes use light and can be used for living organism. Compound light microscopes are better for viewing unicellular (single-celled) organism because they have a higher magnification.
30
For living organisms larger than a cell, a dissecting microscope can be used to view the exterior without harming the species.
