what is one field of science that utilizes the microscope as a tool?

Question

explain how these scientists use the microscope and what they hope to discover , prove or accomplish.

describe their jobs and how it may benifit people.include your feelings and thoughts as to whether you would like to do this job why or why not

Answer 1

Medical Microbiologists. They view different media, hoping to identify microbes. . microbiotia really. The purpose depends. Whether for treatment, research or simple comparison of microbes, the intent varies. You may want to specify.

Answer 2

Microbiology and Nanotechnology require a microscope for most research.
But, there is no one single field that requires a microscope.

Medicine and Biology are the most common fields but every thing from Zoology (a subset of biology) to computer chip design requires the use of microscopes. The question then becomes which field DOESN’T require the use of microscopes and that is astronomy. Practically ever other field can benefit from a microscope.

Structural engineers study micro factures in structures, doctors require blood tests that need microscopes to count the number of red and white blood cells present, oceanographers want to know what strain of plankton grows and where they can be found. This will give them a wide range of information from where a species can find food, to possible ocean currents. Electrical engineers would be interested in solar cells and currently the major production problem with them is that they are laid out in a random, and so less efficient, order. Finding a process to lay the crystals out in a single line would make them much more efficient, and a mechanical engineer would be responsible to design the factory that produces those solar cells. The process that could handle this could be discovered by chemical engineers or some other form of engineering.

And as for astronomy not needing microscopes, that isn’t true either. Buckyballs, massive carbon molecules, were discovered in carbon arc lamps and welding machines. They are also formed in hot clouds around stars, which helped to explain the amount of carbon available there. A microscope can be utilized by any field of science in some way it is a tool much like a test tube, a beaker, a Bunsen Burner, or other scientific instruments.

Answer 3

Clinical Lab Science...They are the behind the scenes folks in a hospital. When the doctor says run this to the lab, they are who run the tests. A microscope is just one of the tools that they use. I am actually considering changing my major to this from nursing.

Answer 4

1) Microbiology / Biology

Answer 5

Cytology - study of cells.
Obvious.

Answer 6

Biology.
Scientists find out new living things.

Answer 7

pathology. they look at sections of tissue to aid in diagnosis and characterization of diseases.
