Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which microscope delivers the highest overall magnification possible?
A
Scanning Electron (SEM)
B
Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM)
C
Light Microscope
D
Dissecting Microscope
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Electron Microscope – It magnifies an object up to 200, 000 times. Was this answer helpful?

Detailed explanation-3: -The magnifications that TEMs offer are also much higher compared to SEMs. TEM users can magnify their samples by more than 50 million times, while for the SEM, this is limited to 1–2 million times.

Detailed explanation-4: -Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is home to the TEAM 0.5. It’s the most powerful transmission electron microscope in the world and has a resolution of half an angstrom (one ten-millionth of a millimetre).
