The basic subcellular structures of an eukaryotic cell as seen by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Try to identify the cell borders and nuclei. Switch between the grayscale and color images (see above) to help identify the following structures: Plasma Membranes.
Figure 01-01: Examples of the four different types of microscopy, imaging green algae cells (species unknown): brightfield light microscopy, fluorescence light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). An average algal cell is between 2 and 7 µm.
The TEM has revealed structures in cells that are not visible with the light microscope. SEMs are often used at lower magnifications (up to ×30,000). The limit of resolution of a SEM is lower...
Three-dimensional views of the surfaces of cells and tissues are obtained by scanning electron microscopy. The shapes of isolated macromolecules that have been shadowed with a heavy metal or outlined by negative staining can also be readily determined by electron microscopy.
