A team of researchers is studying the distance between ribosomes attached to the rough ER in a type of cancer cell. The researchers are writing a grant to provide support for a microscope to use to study this. They need to purchase a microscope with a very high magnification to observe the distance between individual ribosomes in a cross section of a cancer cell. Based on the information given, what type of microscope would you suggest

The correct answer is - Electron microscope.

Explanation:

The electron microscope is one microscope among all other types of microscope that has the ability to get high magnification and resolution levels, That helps in look and study things right down to each individual atom.

The light microscope is not able to show direct structures of the cell components such as cell membrane, ribosomes, ER, and other organelles. To see them we need to achieve the high magnification power that is provided by an electron microscope.
