1 multiple choice 1 point which type of sample is typically prepared for viewing under tem? thick tissue slices moving bacteria in liquid very thin sections of cells fixed and embedded whole live organisms
Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) requires samples to be extremely thin so that electrons can pass through. Fixed and embedded thin - cell sections meet this requirement. Thick tissue slices would block electrons, moving bacteria in liquid are not suitable for TEM's vacuum environment, and whole live organisms are too large and not prepared properly for TEM.
