Cell Contrast Electron Mic Microscopes Compound Structure Phase

This describes compound, phase contrast, TEM (internal detail), and SEM (surface) microscopes and their uses.

This lists types of microscopes: Compound for cell structure, Phase Contrast for living unstained cells, TEM for high-resolution internal details, and SEM for cell surfaces.

Front Microscopes
Back Compound - for cell structure
Phase Contrast - enhances contrast for living unstained cells
TEM (Transmission electron mic) - uses electrons for higher resolution. For cell interiors
SEM (Scanning Electron Mic) - for cell surfaces
