Chapter 2.2, Problem 7AYP
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 lightsource, 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.
