Biology Report About TEM & SEM There are two types of electron microscopes‚ a Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM)‚ which both work in different .ways‚ at different magnifications/ In a transmission electron microscope‚ the electron beam passes through a very thin prepared sample. The electrons pass through the denser parts of the sample less easily‚ which gives some contrast. The final image produced from a TEM is two-dimensional. The magnification

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

Review Questions 1. What is a comparison microscope? What are the advantages of this microscope? A comparison Microscope is 2 microscopes in one it allows you to view 2 slides at once. This is a huge advantage because it allows you to compare evidence with known sample. 2. What are the three substances that generally make up paint? Describe each part. The three substances that generally make up paint are Pigments‚ Binders and Solvent. Pigments are what produce a particular color of

administration. There are several methods that can be used to investigate the size and shape of particles. These range from basic (generally older) techniques such as sieving and use of optical microscopes through to more advanced techniques‚ such as using a coulter counter‚ a scanning electron microscope or photon cross correlation spectroscopy. You will cover a range of techniques in the lectures that accompany this section of the module and you should refer to your lecture notes for further details

Review Questions 1. What is a comparison microscope? What are the advantages of this microscope? A comparison microscope combines two microscopes into one module. This helps the viewer see what is under each of the lenses at the same time. 2. What are the three substances that generally make up paint? Describe each part. The three substances that make up paint are pigments‚ binders‚ and a solvent. Pigments includes both organic and nonorganic compounds and materials that are added to the other

Developments in technology such as the light microscope and the transmission electron microscope particularly have made research in the field of bacteria and in this case Cyanobacteria much easier‚ removing barriers and creating a situation where there are barley any limits. Cyanobacteria are among the easiest microfossils
