T7_D2 TYPES OF MICROSCOPES JEDI TRAINING

How do electrons microscopes differ from light microscopes?

SELECT TWO CHOICES.

• Produce a BLACK and WHITE image using a beam of ELECTRONS.

• Produce a COLOR image using a beam of ELECTRONS.

• Produce a BLACK and WHITE image using a beam of LIGHT.

• Produce very HIGH RESOLUTION images.

• Produce very LOW RESOLUTION images.

Answer explanation

Electron microscopes differ from light microscopes in that they produce black and white images using a beam of electrons and produce very high resolution images.
