What are the principles behind microscope?
A
Illumination
B
Magnification
C
Focusing
D
Numerical Aperture
E
Resolution
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The resolution of a microscope is determined by both the wavelength of light () and the maximum angle of light that can be collected by the objective lens. For a sample mounted on a slide and viewed with an objective lens designed to observe a specimen through an air medium (n = 1.0), the N.A. is simply sin().

Detailed explanation-2: -Key Points Magnification is the ability to make small objects seem larger, such as making a microscopic organism visible. Resolution is the ability to distinguish two objects from each other. Light microscopy has limits to both its resolution and its magnification.
