Correct answer: (D) Contrast areas with different chemical compositions
Explanation
Backscattered-electron yield depends strongly on average atomic number, producing compositional contrast between regions. Thus D describes its principal imaging use. It does not directly measure a unique atomic number without further analysis, and secondary-electron imaging is more commonly used for fine surface topography.
