Which is a difference between a compound light microscope and a scanning electron microscope? A: the scanning electron microscop
e can view the internal part of a cell, while the compound light microscope views the surface of a cell. B: The scanning electron microscope specimens can be stained for contrast, while the compound light microscope specimen appears black and white. C: the scanning electron microscope is used for dissections, while the compound light microscope is not. D: The scanning electron microscope uses an electron beam and a layer of gold to view the surface of the cell, while the compound light microscope uses light and lenses.
Because the scanning electron microscope uses an electron beam instead of a light beam to form an image, and the compound microscope uses lens and light.
