EVERYDAY SCIENCE

Detailed explanation-1: -The electron microscope is necessary to see smaller organelles like ribosomes, macromolecular assemblies, and macromolecules. With light microscopy, one cannot visualize directly structures such as cell membranes, ribosomes, filaments, and small granules and vesicles.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitochondria are visible with the light microscope but can’t be seen in detail. Ribosomes are only visible with the electron microscope.

Detailed explanation-3: -Transmission electron microscopy is the best way to visualize the location of an individual ribosome inside a cell. Transmission electron microscopy is useful for visualizing subcellular components and organelles.

Detailed explanation-4: -Organelles which can be seen under electron microscope (highest magnification to more than 200, 000x) are ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, centrioles, and Golgi bodies.

Detailed explanation-5: -The rough endoplasmic reticulum has on it ribosomes, which are small, round organelles whose function it is to make those proteins.
