Step-by-step explanation:
Light microscopes allow for magnification of an object approximately up to 400-1000 times depending on whether the high power or oil immersion objective is used.
Light microscopes use visible light which passes and bends through the lens system.
Electron microscopes use a beam of electrons, opposed to visible light, for magnification.
Electron microscopes allow for higher magnification in comparison to a light microscope thus, allowing for visualization of cell internal structures.
Key Terms
resolution: The degree of fineness with which an image can be recorded or produced, often expressed as the number of pixels per unit of length (typically an inch).
electron: The subatomic particle having a negative charge and orbiting the nucleus; the flow of electrons in a conductor constitutes electricity.
