Biology Report About TEM & SEM There are two types of electron microscopes‚ a Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM)‚ which both work in different .ways‚ at different magnifications/ In a transmission electron microscope‚ the electron beam passes through a very thin prepared sample. The electrons pass through the denser parts of the sample less easily‚ which gives some contrast. The final image produced from a TEM is two-dimensional. The magnification

microscopy? An electron microscope (EM) is a type of microscope that uses an electron beam to illuminate a specimen and produce a magnified image. An EM has greater resolving power than a light microscope and can reveal the structure of smaller objects because electrons have wavelengths about 100‚000 times shorter than visible light photons. They can achieve better than 50 pm resolution and magnifications of up to about 10‚000‚000x whereas ordinary‚ non-confocal light microscopes are limited by diffraction

One-Way Analysis of Variance The method used today for comparisons of three or more groups is called analysis of variance (ANOVA). This method has the advantage of testing whether there are any differences between the groups with a single probability associated with the test. The hypothesis tested is that all groups
