      • resolution - the ability to show detail. The best light microscope can show details that are 0.2µm apart and need a magnification of roughly x1500 so that our eyes can see it - this allows us to see larger cell structures. Electron microscopes pass beams of electrons through a specimen and have a much greater resolution than a light microscope.

    Resolution is the ability to distinguish between two separate points. If two separate points cannot be resolved, they will be observed as one point. The resolution of a light microscope is limited by the wavelength of light. As light passes through the specimen, it will be diffracted.
