Question

Cells are visualized using light microscopes and electron microscopes. Which statement about microscopes is false. Group of answer choices

Transmission electron microscopes are mainly used to study cell surfaces.
Light microscopes have low resolution while electron microscopes have high resolution.
Light microscopes use light and glass objectives to illuminate and magnify objects
Electron microscopes focus electron beams to create a magnified image of an object.

Answer 1

Light microscopes use light and glass objectives to illuminate and magnify objects

Step-by-step explanation:

Light microscopes and electron microscopes are used to study cells. The electron microscope has many times more resolving power than the ordinary light microscope. A light microscope contains an objective lens and an eyepiece through which the final image is seen.

Both light and electron microscopes magnifies the image of the object. The magnifying power of an electron microscope is many times that of the light microscope.
