The image below shows two micrographs of animal cells. Micrograph A was taken using a light microscope, while Micrograph B was taken using a transmission electron microscope (TEM).

Two micrographs comparing a light microscope view of a cell containing mitochondria and a high-magnification transmission electron microscope (TEM) view of a mitochondrion.

Explain how the transmission electron microscope image (Micrograph B) helps us to understand more about the structure and function of mitochondria compared to the light microscope image (Micrograph A).
