A) phase-contrast microscopy
B) transmission electron microscopy
C) bright-field microscopy
D) confocal microscopy

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transmission electron microscopy uses a beam of electrons to image the ultrastructure of cells and can provide high-resolution images of the layers of the cell membrane and the cell wall. Phase-contrast microscopy can enhance contrast of transparent images, bright-field microscopy is best for observing stained samples and confocal microscopy is used for imaging thick specimens.
