  2. seeing animal tissue that is visible to the naked eye
  3. studying the structures of a live paramecium
  4. viewing a cell’s mitochondria in detail ...?

Verified Answer :

Answer;

1. looking at the surface features of a virus

Explanation;

  • Electron microscopes are types of microscopes that uses a beam of electrons instead of light to magnify objects up to 500,000 times the actual size. These microscopes have a higher resolving power than the light microscopes since they use electrons.
  • There are two types of electron microscopes ; that is Scanning Electron Microscope and Transmission Electron Microscope.
  • Transmission electron microscope are used for studying internal structures of cells. In these microscopes electromagnets are used to magnify the image by passing a beam of electrons through a thin specimen.
