Solution

The correct option is D Higher resolution
The transmission electron microscope (TEM) works on the same principle as an optical microscope but uses electrons in the place of light and electromagnets in the place of glass lenses. Use of electrons instead of light allows a much higher resolution. Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
