Summary Introduction
Introduction: Cell is the smallest fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organism. It is quite difficult to observe the ultra-structure of cell with naked eye. Inside the cell, cell-organelles are present; those are very minute to identify by electron microscope. So, high magnified electron microscope is needed for the observation of ultrastructure of cell and the cellular organelles.

Which of the following is/are too small to have been discovered before the invention of the electron microscope? (a) chloroplasts (b) mitochondria (c) nucleus (d) ribosomes (e) central vacuole
When students are asked to write an essay explaining how to distinguish between an animal cell and a plant cell, they typically answer that plant cells contain chloroplasts and animal cells do not. If you were the professor reading that essay answer, what sort of grade would you assign, and why?
Which type of microscopy allows us to clearly view the internal contents of cell structures smaller than 200 nm?
A. Scanning electron microscopy
B. Light microscopy
C. Fluorescence microscopy
