The correct answer is:

a human skin cell

Explanation:

A light microscope (LM) is an apparatus that uses apparent light and magnifying lenses to observe small objects not apparent to the naked eye, or in finer aspect than the natural eye allows. DNA molecule and a protein need the more advanced type of microscope to examine clearly. A virus as well since seeing such is dangerous to the intent.

Answer:

Option C, a human skin cell

Explanation:

A light microscope works on the concept of visualizing small and tiny objects through the application of light phenomenon and the optical lenses. A light microscope thus can view small things up to a certain extent and not beyond that.

Here, in this case a  human cell can be seen through a light microscope but things smaller than a cell such as DNA, protein, and virus cannot be clearly seen by microscope. However, electron microscope can view these smaller entities.

Hence, option C is correct
