The advantages and disadvantages of the light microscope relate to light, magnification and resolution. Light microscopes magnify visible light--an obvious advantage, since this is what our eyes can see. Magnification (how large an object appears) and resolution (the clarity of details) are both limited when using light microscopes.

Light Microscopes And Electron Microscopes
Microscopes can only have a resolution which is 1/2 of the wavelength that they use, since the wavelength of light is fairly large: 4 - 7 x 10-7 this limits the amount of magnification that can be used without losing sharpness.
light microscopes and electron microscopes
Electron microscopes have higher magnification and resolution compared to light microscopes. Electron microscopes use electrons to create an image, allowing for much greater magnification and resolution due to the shorter wavelength of electrons compared to visible light used in light microscopes.
Electron microscopes have higher magnification and resolution compared to light microscopes. Electron microscopes use electrons instead of light to generate an image, allowing for much higher magnification due to the shorter wavelength of electrons compared to light. This results in electron microscopes being able to resolve smaller details in the sample compared to light microscopes.
Higher Magnification
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.
The range of magnification of most optical microscopes typically falls between 40x to 1000x, with some specialized microscopes capable of achieving higher magnifications.
No, early microscopes created by Leeuwenhoek were not as strong as modern light microscopes. While Leeuwenhoek's microscopes showed great magnification power for their time, modern light microscopes have significantly higher resolution and magnification capabilities due to advancements in technology and materials.
Most light microscopes have 10X eyepieces.
The scanning electron microscope (SEM) typically has the highest magnification among optical and electron microscopes, capable of magnifying up to 1,000,000x. This is considerably higher than the magnification achievable with light microscopes or transmission electron microscopes.
No, electron microscopes provide higher resolution and magnification than light microscopes, allowing for observation of specimens in greater detail. This is due to the shorter wavelength of electrons compared to light, which results in higher magnification and resolution.
The magnification and resolution capabilities are highest in electron microscopes compared to light microscopes. Electron microscopes use a beam of electrons to achieve much higher resolution and magnification, allowing for the visualization of even smaller details in samples.
An electromagnetic lens is found on electron microscopes but not on light microscopes. Electromagnetic lenses use magnetic fields to focus electron beams in electron microscopes, allowing for higher magnification and resolution compared to light microscopes.
Electron microscopes use a beam of electrons to create an image with higher magnification and resolution compared to light microscopes, which use visible light. Electron microscopes can visualize much smaller objects due to the shorter wavelength of electrons compared to light.
