Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Microscope: The instrument having a double convex lens with a short focal length that produces an enlarged image of a small object is called a microscope.
Detailed explanation-3: -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).
