How does the resolution of a specimen's image viewed under a compound light microscope compare to that of a scanning electron microscope?

A scanning electron microscope provides much better resolution than a compound light microscope.

Explanation:

The electron microscope uses a beam of electrons and heavy particle like gold for resolution. A compound light microscope works by using light beams and lenses.

The resolution of electron microscope is smaller then the compound microscope. This means that more smaller parts of the specimen can be seen by the electron microscope.

The magnification power of electron microscope is far better then the compound microscope. Hence, a more bigger image can bee seen through the electron microscope.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."

i think that is new experiments yield untrustworthy data and should be carefully considered, because you don't know what will happen with the experiments.
