RossUnder an electron microscope, structures can be seen with much higher resolution compared to a light microscope. This includes viewing individual molecules, detailed cell structures, and even viruses. The high magnification and resolution of an electron microscope allow for visualization of fine details that are not visible under a light microscope.

Can you see bacteria with viruses under microscope?
Yes, bacteria can be seen under a light microscope as they are larger than viruses. However, viruses are much smaller and cannot be seen with a light microscope. Specialized electron microscopes are required to visualize viruses.
Can colors be seen with an electron microscope?
No, colors cannot be seen with an electron microscope because color is a property of light that is perceived by the human eye. Electron microscopes use electron beams to create images of the surface of objects, which do not reflect color in the same way visible light does.
Can mitochondria be seen under a light microscope or an electron microscope?
Mitochondria can be seen under an electron microscope due to their small size, which cannot be resolved by a light microscope. Electron microscopes have a higher resolution, allowing for the visualization of intracellular structures like mitochondria in greater detail.
What does DNA pictures under a microscope?
That is when the DNA is condensed, at which time it is called chromosome.
How is it possible to study viruses under the light microscope?
Viruses cannot be seen under a light microscope as they are too small. However, techniques like electron microscopy and immunofluorescence can be used to visualize viruses. By tagging viruses with fluorescent markers or using more powerful electron microscopes, researchers can study viruses in greater detail.
