A virus is 50 nm in size. Would you recommend using a stereomicroscope. a compound light microscope, or an electron microscope to see it?

Solution

A virus of 50nm size will be so smaller that it becomes difficult to observed under stereomicroscope or compound light microscope due to lower resolving powers. However, an electron microscope has higher resolving power (0.1nm resolution) and is ideal for viral studies.

Therefore, the correct option is: Electron microscope
