Light microscope
Light is at the bottom part of the microscope, and a thin layer of the sample is placed on the stage
Elecron microscope
An electron microscope is a microscope that uses a beam of accelerated electrons as a source of illumination.
Cells
Prokaryotic
-
Simple in structure – for example, their DNA lies free in the cytoplasm (lack nuclei)
-
(organelle: Structure within a cell that is surrounded by a membrane (membrane-bound) and has a specific function for cell survival)
They are, on average, about 1000 to 10 000 times smaller in volume than eukaryotic cells.
-
Eukariotic
-
-
Most biologists believe that eukaryotes evolved from prokaryotes, 1500 million years after prokaryotes first appeared on Earth.
