Question

To study the details of protein molecules on the surface of a cell, a biologist would likely use a

A) compound light microscope

B) dissecting microscope

C) Scanning electron microscope

D) transmission electron microscope

Answer 1

C) Scanning electron microscope

Step-by-step explanation:

Scanning electron microscope - It uses a focused beam of the electron over a surface to form an image electron that interacts with the atom present in the sample and it produces various signals that are used derive information from the composition and details structure of protein molecule.

Answer 2

Answer;

C) Scanning electron microscope

Explanation;

-A Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is a powerful magnification tool that utilizes focused beams of electrons to obtain information.

-A scanning electron microscope (SEM) scans a focused electron beam over a surface to create an image. The electrons in the beam interact with the sample, producing various signals that can be used to obtain information about the surface topography and composition.

-Advantages of a Scanning Electron Microscope include its wide-array of applications, the detailed three-dimensional and topographical imaging and the versatile information garnered from different detectors.
