Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What kind of microscope can produce coloured, 2D images
A
TEM
B
Light
C
SEM
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -There are two types of electron microscopy-transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). SEM creates fascinating 2D images by bouncing electrons off the surface of the sample.

Detailed explanation-2: -Compound microscopes are light illuminated. The image seen with this type of microscope is two dimensional.

Detailed explanation-3: -Light microscopy shows us the natural color of specimens, which may also be stained with dyes to produce high-contrast, colored images, while images produced by the two electron microscopes can only be black and white, though they might have false color added later.

Detailed explanation-4: -A scanning electron microscope produces only a two-dimensional image of the object with the help of an electron beam.

Detailed explanation-5: -Most compound light microscopes produce flat, 2D images because high-magnification microscope lenses have inherently shallow depth of field, rendering most of the image out of focus.
