The structure of synapses is best viewed with a(n):
A) electron microscope.
B) light microscope.
C) confocal microscope.
D) Nissl-stained microscopic procedure.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The structure of synapses is best viewed under an electron microscope, which has a much higher magnification and resolution than a light microscope. This allows for the visualization of the fine details of the synaptic structure, such as the synaptic cleft, vesicles, and receptor sites. Confocal microscopy and Nissl-stained microscopic procedures are not typically used to study the structure of synapses.
