of a bright-field microscope with a phase-contrast objective
lens and a matching condenser.

A

Phase-contrast microscopy

42
Q

The use of which type of microscopy aids in the identification of crystals
and lipids

A

polarized light. polarizing microscopy

43
Q

in polarizing microscopy, both crystals and lipids have the ability to rotate the path
of the unidirectional polarized light beam to produce ___ in crystals and ___formation in lipids.

A

characteristic colors; Maltese cross

44
Q

called _____, a property indicating that the element can refract light in two dimensions at 90 degrees to each other.

A

birefringent

45
Q

a microscopy that provides a three-dimensional
image showing very fine structural detail by splitting the light ray
so that the beams pass through different areas of the specimen.
