The right answer is a. structures smaller than cells.

In the transmission electron microscope, electrons are emitted by heating a tungsten filament (or crystal of lanthanum hexaboride). These electrons are then accelerated with a voltage of between 200 and 1000 kV (1000 kV for the most expensive). Once the vacuum is in the cell, the electron beam is passed through a sample about 3 mm in diameter and less than 20 nanometers thick. Then this beam is focused with the help of magnetic lenses towards the screen or the photographic plate.

The operation of M.E.T is analogous to that of an optical microscope.

In light microscopy, a beam of photons is sent through a sample. This beam is then focused through optical lenses to the image plane of the lens. An enlarged image of the sample is observed.

TEM is a microscope that uses an electron beam. A transmission electron microscope is best for the study of structures smaller than cells.

<h2>TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope):</h2>
  • It is a large microscope that uses an electron beam instead of light.
  • It gives the highest resolution(0.2 nm) of available microscopes.
  • It has the highest magnification power (1000000) of very tiny organelles.

Therefore, a transmission electron microscope is best for the study of structures smaller than cells.

You have some old plastic Petri dishes that you would like to use for pouring bacteriological agar plates. The only method of ph
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The lids of the Petri dishes were inadvertently left on while being sterilized

Explanation:

  • The process of eliminating any microbe from a particular object to achieve a sterile aseptic environment is termed as sterilization.
  • Sterilization mainly aims to either remove, kill or make any microbe inactive by using various means such as irradiation, heat, pressure, etc.
  • In the given question radiation is used to sterilize the Petri dishes and thus, if sterilization is successful there should not be any contamination.
  • However, since there is contamination present amongst the bacterial colonies growing on agar plated in the Petri dishes this shows that the sterilization has not been done successfully and a possible reason for this could be that while sterilizing the<em> lids of the Petri dishes were kept on. </em>
