1.5 Technological Advances of the Microscope (Text pages 17 and 18)
Key Ideas • What are the different types of microscopes and how are they used?
Single- lens microscope (SLM) • The year 1660’s • 1 lens = 10x magnification 2. Compound light microscope (CLM) • The year 1857 • FSJSS • 2 lenses • Glass lenses and light • Increasing thickness of lens= increasing mag. (can become blurry) • Max mag. = 2000 x • Any part of cell can be seen
3. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) • The 1930’s • 2 000 000 x mag. • electrons (not light) pass through cells • very thin slices of cells • dead cells
4. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) • In the 1980’s • Electrons bounce off of cells • Thickness does not matter • Only 3 D images (out side of cell) • Less mag. than TEM
