MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -A Dutch father-son team named Hans and Zacharias Janssen invented the first so-called compound microscope in the late 16th century when they discovered that, if they put a lens at the top and bottom of a tube and looked through it, objects on the other end became magnified.

Detailed explanation-2: -Antoni van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723): father of microscopy.

Detailed explanation-3: -In 1674, a Dutch draper and scientist by the name of Antony Van Leeuwenhoek became the first person to make and use a microscope for a scientific purpose.
