Light. Cells. Cell wall.

Answer 2

>You can see light with a light microscope.

There are different types of light microscopes. You need to be more specific.

Answer 3

Typical light microscopes have magnification of x40 to x400 (but can be up to 2000x these days). If you are looking at a eukaryotic cell, you will likely cell the cell membrane and nucleus and possibly some of the larger organelles at higher magnifications. Here is a link with cell slides, just search for the keyword: 'light microscope' to see the relevant slides:
