Brief Explanations
- A telescope is used for viewing distant objects in space or far - off terrestrial objects, not for looking inside the human body.
- A microscope is used for viewing very small specimens (like cells) on slides, not for internal body cavities like the intestine.
- Laser beams are used for cutting or cauterizing tissues, not for viewing the inside of an intestine.
- Fiber optics can transmit light and images. In medicine, endoscopes (which use fiber optics) are used to view the inside of body cavities such as the intestine.
