Detailed explanation-1: -So, the statement that correctly compares the magnification and resolution of electron and light microscopes states that electron microscopes have a higher resolution and a higher magnification than light microscopes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Electron Microscopy. Electron microscopes use electrons to form images. Because electrons are smaller than photons of light, electron microscopes have a much greater resolution than optical microscopes.
Detailed explanation-3: -light microscopes are used to study living cells and for regular use when relatively low magnification and resolution is enough. electron microscopes provide higher magnifications and higher resolution images but cannot be used to view living cells.
