Question

Which of the following pairs is mismatched?

A) darkfield microscope-uses visible light
B) flourescene microscope-uses a flourescent light
C) scanning tunneling microscope-uses visualization of atoms
D) scanning electron microscope- produces three-dimmensional image
E) confocal microscope-produces a three-dimensional image

Answer 1

The mismatched pair is a darkfield microscope-uses visible light.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mismatched pair is:

A) darkfield microscope-uses visible light

A darkfield microscope uses a special condenser to illuminate the specimen with oblique light, resulting in a bright image on a dark background.

It does not use visible light directly as the primary source of illumination.
