Question

question 1 - 2
the list below shows different types of microscopes.

• compound light microscope
• transmission electron microscope
• dissection microscope

which description correctly identifies the type(s) of microscope(s) that require specimens to be non - living?
only compound light microscopes
only transmission electron microscopes
compound light and dissection microscopes
transmission electron and dissection microscopes

Explanation:

Transmission electron microscopes require specimens to be non - living. This is because the preparation process for specimens in a transmission electron microscope involves dehydrating and fixing the sample, which kills the cells. Compound light microscopes and dissection microscopes can be used to view living specimens in some cases.

Answer:

B. only transmission electron microscopes
