The word cell comes from the Latin cellula, meaning, a small room. The descriptive name for the smallest living biological structure was chosen by Robert Hooke in a book he published in 1665 when he compared the cork cells he <span>saw through his microscope to the small rooms monks lived in.

A transparent specimen is viewed through a microscope using _____ light while an opaque object requires _____ illumination.
Julli [10]

Transmitted, vertical

A transparent specimen is viewed through a microscope using transmitted light while an opaque object requires vertical illumination.

Transmitted light is the light that passes through an object. Transmitted light microscopy is any kind of microscopy in which the light is transmitted from a source located directly across the specimen from the objective. The light is commonly passed through a condenser in order to focus it on the specimen to obtain very high illumination. After the light passes through the specimen, the image of the specimen moves through the objective lens and later to the oculars where the enlarged image is viewed.
