Question

Suggest why the ribosomes cannot be seen through a light microscope.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Some cell parts, including ribosomes, the endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, centrioles, and Golgi bodies, cannot be seen with light microscopes because these microscopes cannot achieve a magnification high enough to see these relatively tiny organelles.

brilliant pls

Answer 2

The ribosomes cannot be seen through a light microscope is because of the small size of the ribosome.

• Light microscopes are used to observe and study the structure of the cell wall, cytoplasm, nucleus, etc.
• Organelles like ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes cannot be viewed under a light microscope.
• This is due to the size of these organelles. When compared to the organelles like nucleus and cell wall, organelles like ribosome and ER are much smaller.
• These small-sized organelles are viewed under the electron microscope.
