The power of a microscope by which we can distinguish two closely located points is termed as:
Correct answer: B. Resolution
- A. Magnification
- B. Resolution
- C. Fixation
- D. Electrophoresis
- E. Ultracentrifugation
Explanation
Magnification refers to the increase in the apparent size of an object, while resolution refers to the ability to distinguish two different points as distinct from each other. In other words, the resolution is the power of a microscope to reveal fine detail and distinguish between two closely spaced objects as separate. Fixation, electrophoresis, and ultracentrifugation are techniques used in cell biology for various purposes, but they are not related to the power of a microscope.
