Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The reason why the biologists use a light microscope instead of an electron microscope and the reason for not providing electron microscope to the students in introductory biology courses.
Introduction:
The objective of microscopes is to view objects and areas of objects which cannot be seen with the naked eye is known as microscopy. There are several types of microscopes, such as compound, stereo, digital microscope, and many more.
