Detailed explanation-1: -Electron microscopes differ from light microscopes in that they produce an image of a specimen by using a beam of electrons rather than a beam of light. Electrons have much a shorter wavelength than visible light, and this allows electron microscopes to produce higher-resolution images than standard light microscopes.
Detailed explanation-2: -The lens used in the compound microscope is the glass lens and the electron microscope uses the electromagnetic lens. Compound microscope magnifies the object about 2000 times but electron microscope magnifies the object 200, 000 times. Under the compound microscope, both live and dead cells or specimens can be seen.
Detailed explanation-3: -Electron microscopes have two key advantages when compared to light microscopes: They have a much higher range of magnification (can detect smaller structures) They have a much higher resolution (can provide clearer and more detailed images)
