<span>Basically both operate by bouncing tiny particles or waves off of objects in order to make them visible. Electrons are smaller than light photons so we can see smaller objects clearly with electron microscopes. There are disadvantages though. First, color is a function of light wave frequency so we can't see electron micrographs in color. Color can be added artificially though by computer to differentiate structures, (think photoshop). Also, we cannot see electrons so we make them visible by bouncing them off a cathode ray screen similar to a TV set or computer monitor</span>

Compare and contrast optical and radio telescope
Umnica [9.8K]

Hallo~~~

When comparing optical and radio telescopes, we know that both of these telescopes detect a certain band of the electromagnetic spectrum.

When contrasting optical and radio telescopes, we know that optical telescopes have higher equipment (polished mirrors, accuracy), and that they depend on weather. Radio telescopes have lower equipment (less precise reflectors), and depend on diff. things such as thermal radiation and man-made emissions.

Polymers are made of individual subunit called
AfilCa [17]

Polymers are made of individual subunit called monomer.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Polymers are lengthy chains built up of replicating molecular subunits, named monomers. The term polymer becomes from poly- (many) and -mer (part). A polymer may be a real or manufactured macromolecule composed of recurring units of a smaller molecule (monomers). The term monomer comes from mono- (one) and -mer (part).

Monomers make polymers by creating chemical bonds or confining supramolecular by a method called polymerization. Examples of polymers comprise plastics like polyethylene, silicones. Polymerization is the method of covalently bonding the smaller monomers into the polymer. While polymerization, chemical groups are failed from the monomers so that they may join together.
