which microscope gives a 3-D view of an object, we can look at living things
A
stereo
B
compound
C
electron
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A stereo microscope provides a 3D image or “stereo” image and typically will provide magnification between 10x-40x.

Detailed explanation-2: -Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is normally used for imaging the surface of cells, tissues and whole multicellular organisms. SEM images of surfaces appear to be three-dimensional (3D) but there is no measurable depth information in the image.

Detailed explanation-3: -The stereo microscope uses two separate optical paths with two objectives and two eyepieces to provide slightly different viewing angles to the left and right eyes. In this way it produces a 3D visualization of the sample being examined.

Detailed explanation-4: -A scanning electron microscope (SEM) directly produces an image of the three-dimensional structure of the surface of a specimen.

Detailed explanation-5: -The two microscopes that are able to produce a three-dimensional image of the object are scanning tunnel microscope and transmission electron microscope.
