To study the details of protein molecules on the surface of a cell, a biologist would likely use a

A) compound light microscope

B) dissecting microscope

C) Scanning electron microscope

D) transmission electron microscope

Respuesta :

Answer;

C) Scanning electron microscope

Explanation;

-A Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is a powerful magnification tool that utilizes focused beams of electrons to obtain information.

-A scanning electron microscope (SEM) scans a focused electron beam over a surface to create an image. The electrons in the beam interact with the sample, producing various signals that can be used to obtain information about the surface topography and composition.

-Advantages of a Scanning Electron Microscope include its wide-array of applications, the detailed three-dimensional and topographical imaging and the versatile information garnered from different detectors.
