Question
Chapter 3.2, Problem 8AYP
Summary Introduction
To differentiate:
The principles of light microscopy and electron microscopy.
Concept introduction:
The microscopes require a source of light to clearly visualize the image. On the basis of the light source, the microscopes are of two types, light microscopes and electron microscopes. Both types of microscopes produce a clear image of the image with some differences occurred due to the phase of the light.
