Question
Which statements are true? Explain why or why not.
1 Because the DNA double helix is only 2 nm wide—
well below the limit of resolution of the light microscope—
it is impossible to see chromosomes in living cells without
special stains.
2 A fluorescent molecule, having absorbed a single
photon of light at one wavelength, always emits it at a lon
ger wavelength.
