Detailed explanation-1: -Typically, a compound microscope is used for viewing samples at high magnification (40-1000x), which is achieved by the combined effect of two sets of lenses: the ocular lens (in the eyepiece) and the objective lenses (close to the sample).
Detailed explanation-2: -The most common laboratory scopes, the compound microscope (also referred to as light or compact microscope) and the stereomicroscope (also referred to as a dissecting microscope), have different uses.
Detailed explanation-3: -What is a Compound Microscope? A microscope with a high resolution and uses two sets of lenses providing a 2-dimensional image of the sample. The term compound refers to the usage of more than one lens in the microscope. Also, the compound microscope is one of the types of optical microscopes.
Detailed explanation-4: -A compound microscope is an upright microscope that uses two sets of lenses (a compound lens system) to obtain higher magnification than a stereo microscope. A compound microscope provides a two-dimensional image, while a stereo microscope provides a three-dimensional image.
Detailed explanation-5: -With higher levels of magnification than stereo microscopes, a compound microscope uses a compound lens to view specimens which cannot be seen at lower magnification, such as cell structures, blood, or water organisms.
