CC. INTERPRETING MICROGRAPHS [An electron microscope isan instrament that wes a bear of elec- trons, ther than 2 beam of light, to form the image of 2 tiny specimen. Tranonission electron microscopes send an clectron beam through the specimen, sma tothe manne in which alight ‘microscope sends alight beam through a specimen. However, the magnifying power and resolution are much greater in the electron Inicroscope, Resolution i the ability to distinguish detail. Scan ring electron microscopes, on the other hand, reflect an electron beam of the specimen. The shadows produced by a anning elec tron bean lend a three dimensional effect. A TEM is 4 transmission electron micrograph (photograph taken with a transmission electron microscope). Figure 4 shows TEM representations of major cell pars.
