Which of the Following Methods is Used to Generate the Structure

Question

Which of the following methods is used to generate the structure shown below? 
A) scanning probe microscopy 
B) scanning electron microscopy 
C) transmission electron microscopy 
D) confocal microscopy 
E) X-ray crystallography

Accepted Answer

The structure shown is a string of characters containing alphanumeric characters and underscores indicating it is likely a code or identifier. The method used to generate such a code is most likely not any form of microscopy, but rather a computer-based system. One possible method of generating such a code is through X-ray crystallography, which is used to determine the three-dimensional structure of molecules and can generate alphanumeric codes to identify the structures.
