Are light microscopes more powerful than electron microscopes?
Yes, electron microscopes have a much higher possible magnification than compound light microscopes. An electron microscope is capable of 10,000,000 times magnification, whereas a good compound light microscope is capable of 1,000 - 2,000 times magnification.
Wavelength of light would you expect to be reflected or transmitted by chlorophyll a?
green
What happens to sun light that strikes a leaf but is not trap by the chlorophyll?

What will happen to light that are not absorb?
Light that is not absorbed is either reflected, refracted, or transmitted.
When white light strikes blue pigment the blue light is?
reflected or transmitted
Can compound light microscopes view living specimen?
Yes it can.
How many lenses are in compound light microscopes?

Yes, electron microscopes have a much higher possible magnification than compound light microscopes. An electron microscope is capable of 10,000,000 times magnification, whereas a good compound light microscope is capable of 1,000 - 2,000 times magnification.
What is the difference between a compound microscope and a light microscopes?
light microscopes shoe only black and white pictures. When a compound microscope shows color when you look through the eye-piece.
