: Electron Microscopes are scientific instruments that use a beam of highly energetic electrons to examine objects on a very fine scale. This examination can yield the following information: ; Topography : The surface features of an object or "how it looks", its texture; direct relation between these features and materials properties (hardness, reflectivity...etc.) ; Morphology : The shape and size of the particles making up the object; direct relation between these structures and materials properties (ductility, strength, reactivity...etc.) ; Composition : The elements and compounds that the object is composed of and the relative amounts of them; direct relationship between composition and materials properties (melting point, reactivity, hardness...etc.) ; Crystallographic Information : How the atoms are arranged in the object; direct relation between these arrangements and materials properties (conductivity, electrical properties, strength...etc.)

What type of microscope would be best to use to look at different cells or organelles?
scanning electron microscope
Which type of microscope can magnify objects up to a million times?
an electron microscope can magnify something up to 500,000 times
What microscope is recommended to view a detailed structure of a cell nucleus?
an electron microscopean elctron microscope
Electron microscopes use a beam of light to produce a magnified image?
An Electron Microscope uses electrons to magnify objects.
Why electron microscope is called as electron microscope?
The resolution of electron microscope is much higher than that of light microscope, allowed detailed ultra-structural examination. That's why electron microscope is called so.
