light microscope make it possible to study dead organisms and their parts, and to observe some tiny organisms and cells while they are still alive. TEMs a type of electron microscope can reveal a wealth of detail inside the cell.SEMs another type of electron microscope produce realistic, and often dramatic,three-dimensional images of the surfaces of objects. however electron microscopes only work with preserved dead and dehydrated specimens.
Both microscopes magnify, but they do it in different ways. The electron microscopehas greater magnification and better resolution because it uses electrons to create an image. The light microscope works like a refracting microscope in that there is a mirror at the bottom that reflects light rays up to the object through a hole in the stage.
you would use a light microscope when you have sun light.

This answer above is a careless one that is not correct. I have this question on a homework assignment and I need help on it. Haha! Sorry I am no help.

the compound micro and the electron one will win since they are both double and triple the simple one because of the technology which increases
to see tiny things up close
Electron microscopes are more powerful.
electron microscope
Bacteria are generally very small - so you would need an electron microscope to see them in any detail. Under a light microscope you would probably only be able to see the overall shape.
scanning electron microscope
No, an electron microscope is needed to see a virus.
A scanning electron microscope would be the best choice because the electron microscope can achieve a much greater resolution than that obtained with the light microscope because the wavelength of electrons is shorter than that of light.
---- You would use the light microscope. The electron microscope would be unnecessary in this situation, due to its high magnification levels.
electron microscope
Light microscopes can use live cells and are much smaller than electron microscopes
peace out homie ♫
An Electron Microscope is used to study the contents of a nucleus.
A virus of 50nm would be too small to see unless an electron microscope was used because it has greater resolving power and a resolution up to .1nm. A microscope using compound light as the means of illumination could not resolve better than approx. 200nms.
