Comparing Microscopes BOW (blog of week 4)

Electric Microscope 

Compound Light Microscope 

Electron microscopes can produce images almost 1000 times more detailed than light microscopes, and electron microscopes produce black and white images while light microscopes produce color images. Light microscopes cannot produce clear images of objects smaller than 0.2 micrometers, which is about 1/5 of the diameter of a typical cell. Compound light microscopes can only produce clear images of objects at a magnification of about 1000 times. Compound light microscopes make it possible to study dead organisms and their parts, and to observe some tiny organisms and cells while they are still alive.
