Which of these statements about light microscopes and electron microscopes is NOT true? A.) You can use light microscopes to observe both living and nonliving cells; you can use electron microscopes to observe only nonliving cells. B.) Light microscopes use visible light rays; electron microscopes use beams of electrons. C.) Preserving and staining samples for use with light microscopes is necessary;preserving and staining samples for use with electron microscopes is optional.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Preserving and staining samples for use with light microscopes is necessary;preserving and staining samples for use with electron microscopes is optional is not true about light microscopes and electron microscopes

Correct answer choice is :

C) Preserving and staining samples for use with light microscopes is necessary;preserving and staining samples for use with electron microscopes is optional

Explanation:

A light microscope is an apparatus that uses evident light and magnifying lenses to observe small objects not visible to the naked eye, or in less detail than the naked eye allows. Magnification, however, is not the most significant point in microscopy. An electron microscope is a microscope that uses a beam of stimulated particles as a source of information. As the wavelength of an atom can be up to 100,000 times less than that of visible light photons, electron microscopes have a greater resolving energy than light microscopes and can expose the formation of miniature objects.
