Cell receptors are typically membrane-bound proteins that span the cell membrane. They have a specific 3D structure that allows them to bind specific ligands or signaling molecules. However, their actual visualization using a light microscope may be limited due to their small size (~1-10 nm) and the resolution of the microscope.

Is bacteria too small to be seen with an ordinary light microscope?

Yes, most bacteria are too small to be seen with an ordinary light microscope. Bacteria are generally between 0.5 to 5 micrometers in size, which is below the resolution limit of a light microscope which is about 200 nanometers.


Why can't viruses be seen with a light microscope?

Viruses are too small to be seen with a light microscope because they are smaller than the wavelength of visible light. This means that light cannot pass through them or be reflected off of them, making them invisible under a light microscope.
