Electron Microscope Explain Shows Detail Cell Structure Light

Electron microscopes provide greater detail than light microscopes because their shorter electron wavelengths offer higher resolution.

Electron microscopes show more cell detail than light microscopes due to their higher resolving power, enabled by the shorter wavelength of electron beams.

Front Explain why an electron microscope shows more detail of cell structure than a light microscope. ( 2 marks) 
Back electron microscope has a greater resolving power / objects closer together can be distinguished

electron (beams) have a shorter wavelength;
