What is not a characteristic of Light Microscopy?
|
|
Visible light passes through specimen/refracts light
|
|
|
Black & white/Magnify up to 1, 000, 000 times
|
|
|
Specimen can be alive/moving
|
|
|
Magnify up 1000x/color
|
Explanation:
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.
Detailed explanation-2: -A primer on the fundamental principles of light microscopy: Optimizing magnification, resolution, and contrast.
Detailed explanation-3: -Alternatives to optical microscopy which do not use visible light include scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy and scanning probe microscopy and as a result, can achieve much greater magnifications.
