QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS | GRADED
AND THE LATEST SERIES
Phase-Contrast Microscope
Ans: allows detailed visualization of the internal structures in living microbes
Question: Fluorescence Microscope
Ans: Immunofluorescence;
detecting bacteria and other pathogens within cells and tissues;
Dx of rabies and Syphilis
Question: Electron Microscope
Ans: ability to visualize viruses, the internal structure of cells, and other objects
smaller than 0.2 um;
uses a beam of electrons
Question: Transmission electron microscope/TEM
Ans: utilizes a focused beam of electrons that are emitted from an electron gun
and pass thru a very thin section of the specimen
Question: Scanning electron microscope/SEM
Ans: section of specimen does NOT have to be thinly sliced like with the TEM;
3D views are obtained
