Summary Introduction
To distinguish: The principle between light microscope and transmission electron microscope.
Introduction: A microscope is an instrument that is used to view the objects that are too small to be viewed with naked eyes. The components of the microscope are eyepiece, arm, base, illuminator, stage clips, nose piece, objective lens, and so on. There are two types of microscopes, namely, light microscope and electron microscope.

- Molecular Biology Question You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas.
