The development of the microscope allowed scientists to observe microorganisms and cells, changing beliefs about disease causation. Robert Hooke and Anton van Leeuwenhoek used early microscopes to observe cells and microorganisms in the 1600s-1700s. Modern microscopes like light microscopes and electron microscopes provide higher magnification and resolution to observe living and non-living microscopic structures.
A microscope (from the Ancient Greek: μικρός, mikrós, "small" and σκοπεῖν, skopeîn, "to look" or "see") is an instrument used to see objects that are too small to be seen by the naked eye. Microscopy is the science of investigating small objects and structures using such an instrument. Microscopic means invisible to the eye unless aided by a microscope to know more visit our website www.jaincoexport.com

In the late 16th century several Dutch lens makers designed devices that magnified objects, but in 1609 Galileo Galilei perfected the first device known as a microscope. Dutch spectacle makers Zaccharias Janssen and Hans Lipperhey are noted as the first men to develop the concept of the compound microscope.
This content is useful for only GNM-1 year students.
This content is prepared as per INC syllabus of GNM course for first year GNM. This content cover all introductory points well & easy to understand for first year students. Kindly share this content more to first year GNM students.
This is part of the PowerPoint that covers section 1.1 in the Cambridge Pre-U Biology course. The full PowerPoint covers the following topics: Microscopy, cell membrane structure, transport across membranes, cell organelles.

This is a simple worksheet for drawing and outlining the stages of mitosis. There are 4 boxes for Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase with 1 extra box for either interphase or cytokinesis.
Grade 9 Biology. Introduction to the cell cycle. These are the guided notes for the Cell Cycle PPT. The goal is to introduction the stages of the cell cycle. G1, S, and G2. There is a lot of space for diagrams. Students are asked to consider surface-area to volume ratio and size limitations for the cell. Additionally, they should be able to identify the differences between each stage of the cell cycle and interphase.
4. The Development of Microscopes
• The development of the microscope was crucial for
understanding disease and pathogens, the causes
of diseases.
• Between 1600-1800s many people didn’t believe in
pathogens, microbes that cause illness.
• t took almost 200 years after the Anton van
Leeuwenhoek saw the first microorganisms for the
concept of spontaneous generation to die out.
6. Anton van Leeuwenhoek
• Dutch merchant and lens grinder
• He is called the “Father of Microbiology”
• He was able to make simple microscopes that could
magnify an object up to 270x.
• He was the first person to discover blood cells and
microorganisms.
• 1674
7. Types of Microscopes
ONE CHARACTERISTIC OF ALL MICROSCOPES IS THAT MY
MAGNIFY OBJECTS. WHAT DOES IT MEAN WHEN SOMETHING IS
MAGNIFIED?
9. Resolution
• Magnification is how many times larger the object appears than its original
size.
• For example, if I am looking at a 1mm long bug that appears 2mm long under the microscope. The
magnification of the microscope is 2x.
10. Resolution
• Resolution is how
clear an object looks
under a microscope.
• For example, if you put an
ant under a microscope
that has 10x magnification
and you can’t see its legs
the resolution of that
microscope is poor.
11. Characteristics of a microscope
• There are 2 main types of microscopes, light microscopes and
electron microscopes. Both differ by magnification and resolution.
12. Light Microscopes
• Light microscopes use light and
lenses to enlarge an image of an
object.
• If a light microscope uses more than
one lens it is a compound
microscope.
• If a light microscope uses one lens, its
simple.
Total Magnification = ocular lens x objective lens
13. Light Microscopes
Light microscopes can enlarge images up to
1500 times the original size.
◦The resolution of a light microscope is about 0.2
micrometers or 2/1,000,000 of a meter.
◦This means if to points are 0.2 micrometers apart you
can see the space between them.
Light microscopes can be used to see living and
nonliving things.
◦They must be mounted on a slide.
◦Some objects must be stained such as white blood
cells.
14. Electron Microscopes Are Awesome!
Electron microscopes use a magnetic
field to focus a beam of electrons
through an object or onto an object’s
surface.
◦Can magnify up to 100,000x
◦Resolution 0.2nanometers or
2/1,000,000,000 meter
◦1,000 times better than a light microscope
The Electron
Microscope
15. TEM (transmission electron microscope)
Used to see tiny things like cell
structures.
◦Preparation is hard
◦Objects are mounted in plastic and thinly sliced
◦Only see dead organisms
◦Electrons pass through the object
and the computer makes an image
◦Cost: $250,000 (7,500,000 NT)
16.
17. SEM (scanning electron microscope)
Used to study an objects surface
Electrons bounce off the object and a
computer produces a 3-D image
Can be used to see living things
Cost: $500,000 (15,000,000 NT)

38. Using Microscopes
Health Care
◦Surgery
◦Analyze blood, urine and
other fluids
◦Examine healthy and diseased
tissue
◦Display surgery
Other Uses
◦Forensic science to study evidence
at crime scenes
◦Identifying mold or insects from an
idea
◦Paleontologist and palynology
examining fossils
◦Industry

1. You study the shape of different minerals.
2. You study the structures inside microorganisms.
