Question

Write information about the instrument which is used for observing smaller organisms or cells.

✓

Answer

To observe cells or organisms of smaller size we use a microscope.
Larger cells can be seen through simple microscope but to observe smaller cells we require compound microscope.
Simple microscope can magnify image 50 to 100 times but a compound microscope can do so 1000 times or more.
In the microscope a beam of light is used to make things visible hence it is light microscope.
To observe interior of cell we need electron microscope which can magnify image 500000 times.
