Your science class has taken swabs throughout the school. The image shows the petri dish containing a bacterial culture that dev
eloped from a swab of one computer keyboard in the classroom. You would like to make a detailed observation of the internal structures of the bacteria in your culture. You know that In order to see just their shape, it is necessary to use a magnification of about 400x to 1000x. Based on this, develop a logical argument for using a transmission electron microscope.
D) The TEM magnifies up to 200,000X and you can see great detail, including the internal structure of cells.
Explanation:
The TEM magnifies up to 200,000X and you can see great detail, including the internal structure of cells. Critical is magnification, ability to see internal structure. To use the TEM, the bacteria will be dead.
