abhisar · Answer

WHat do you think it should be ?

anonymous · Answer

I dont know because i dont know what a transmission electron microscope is used for. If you could explain what it is used for i would greatly appreciate it

abhisar · Answer

Have you tried googling it ?

anonymous · Answer

I prefer not to

abhisar · Answer

So u prefer to with some random guy ?

anonymous · Answer

Well they usually explain why a answer is correct rather then just telling you it which is what i prefer so i don't have to look it up or ask why

anonymous · Answer

So for short yes

anonymous · Answer

So could you please just help me? If you don't know that's fine but it doesn't mean you can just tell me to Google it

abhisar · Answer

Well well well.....

Transmission electron microscope as the name suggests uses electron beams to to reproduce images of the subject under investigation. What's the benefit of using electron beam rather than light rays ?

Well it enable us to see even smaller objects which we can't see with light microscope [objects smaller than the wavelength of visible light].

So you can easily observe single celled organisms with great detail. Objects smaller than cells can also be observed but with not great accuracy. So B would be the correct choice.

Transmission electron microscopes (TEM) pass a beam of electrons through a thin specimen similar to how a compound light microscope transmits light. Scientists can apply stain to the specimen to increase contrast in the image. Transmission electron microscopes are mainly used for studying the internal structures of cells that cannot be viewed under light microscopes. 
Notice that the magnified images of the specimen are produced in black and white. Scientists can use computers to add artificial color to enhance visibility when needed.
