Question 9 • Biology

Which two microscopes generate three-dimensional images?

Answer
A
compound light microscope and scanning electron microscope
B
scanning tunneling microscope and transmission electron microscope
C
transmission electron microscope and scanning electron microscope
D
scanning electron microscope and scanning tunneling microscope

Explanation

A scanning electron microscope (SEM) produces detailed images of a specimen’s surface that appear three-dimensional. A scanning tunneling microscope (STM) maps surface features at the atomic scale, creating a three-dimensional surface image; transmission electron microscopes and compound light microscopes typically produce two-dimensional images.
