History

Which consequence results when early compound microscopes suffered from spherical aberration?

A)Images appeared distorted and blurred
B)Chromatic fringes severely lowered resolution
C)Samples were intensely overheated damage
D)Magnification power was severely limited

💡 Explanation

Spherical aberration affected early microscopes because imperfect lens curvature caused light rays at edges to focus differently than those at the center, resulting in blurry images; therefore image clarity suffered, rather than chromatic issues or thermal problems.
