What is a transmission electron microscope?
A
The normal microscopes we have in class
B
a microscope that uses electrons to create a flat, 2D image
C
a microscope that uses electrons to create a colorful image
D
a microscope that uses electrons to create a 3D image
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a microscopy technique in which a beam of electrons is transmitted through a specimen to form an image.

Detailed explanation-2: -What is a Transmission Electron Microscope? Transmission electron microscopes (TEM) are microscopes that use a particle beam of electrons to visualize specimens and generate a highly-magnified image. TEMs can magnify objects up to 2 million times.

Detailed explanation-3: -A scanning electron microscope produces only a two-dimensional image of the object with the help of an electron beam.

Detailed explanation-4: -SEMs provide a 3D image of the surface of the sample, whereas TEM images are 2D projections of the sample, which in some cases makes the interpretation of the results more difficult for the operator.

Detailed explanation-5: -Compound microscopes are light illuminated. The image seen with this type of microscope is two dimensional.
