D) phase-contrast
E) confocal

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Freeze-fracture microscopy involves freezing a sample and then breaking it apart to reveal the internal structures, allowing for visualization of the embedded components of a cell membrane. Light, scanning electron, and phase-contrast microscopy do not provide this level of detail, and confocal microscopy is typically used for visualizing fluorescently-labeled samples.
