they are made of glass because it is transparent and nonpermeable so no liquids can pass through it it is hard aswell so it will not break easily

Glass slide use?
Glass slides are used when looking at a substance under a microscope. They help you see it clearer and protects it.
What scientist made a simple microscope with a glass bead?
Robert Hooke
When small things are made to look bigger they are?
They are MAGNIFIED ... as with a microscope or a magnifying glass.
What do solids look like in a microscope?
solid objects like in biopsy are sliced thinly by the use of microtome, dyed and placed on glass slides. Then you can view individual cell.
What are the important things to remember in handling a microscope?
Some important things to remember in handling a microscope are: When you pick up the microscope and walk with it, grab the arm with one hand and place your other hand on the bottom of the base. Never touch the lenses with your fingers. Your body produces an oil that smudges the glass. This oil can even etch the glass if left on too long. Use only LENS PAPER to clean the glass. When you are finished with your "scope" assignment, rotate the nosepiece so that it's on the low power objective, roll the nosepiece so that it's all the way down to the stage, then replace the dust cover. Clean all slides, materials, and work area when you're done. Please, be careful with the slides and cover slips. They are made of glass and if broken, you will get cut and you will bleed.
What are microscope glass slides made of?
Glass or plastic.
Refractive index of a glass slab using a travelling microscope?
To find the refractive index of a glass slab using a travelling microscope, you would first place the glass slab on a flat surface. Using the travelling microscope, measure the apparent shift in the position of the object when viewed through the glass slab. By knowing the thickness of the glass slab and the shift in the position, you can calculate the refractive index using the formula: Refractive index (n) = (apparent shift + 1) / actual shift.
Stage on a microscope?
iit supports the glass slides
Are samples for compound light microscope prepared on glass slides?
Yes
Is a glass microscope slides a conductor or insulator?
It is a insulator because glass is not a metal so it is NOT A CONDUCTOR.

How are glass slides used?

What is a prepared slide on a micro scope?

What kind of microscope uses two or more glass lenses to magnify either living cells or prepared slides?
