Resolution
is determined by your ability
to distinguish small objects
that are close together.
Resolution becomes more
difficult as objects become
smaller and closer together.
At some point objects will
"fuse" together and become
indistinguishable. This point
is the resolution limit of the
microscope, and it is a
critical parameter that every
microscopist should
understand.
