An advantage of electron microscopes compared to light microscopes is that electron microscopes

A.are inexpensive and commonly used in most biology laboratories
B.allow you to view living cells, while light microscopes do not
C.have higher resolution that allows you to view smaller specimens
D.allow you to view the true colors of the specimens being viewed

Respuesta :

c. have higher resolution that allows you to view smaller specimen

Answer: C.have higher resolution that allows you to view smaller specimens.

An electron microscope is the outcome of advent of the technology. It utilizes electron beams to make the image of the object on a screen. It provides resolution several times higher than the light microscope. It can only be used to observe dead specimens as the energy released by the beam of electrons can kill living cells and other living specimens.

Therefore, on the basis of the above information an advantage of electron microscopes compared to light microscope is that they have higher resolution that allows you to view smaller specimens.
