a) a compound microscope has a greater magnification ability than a simple microscope.

Answer;

A. A compound microscope has greater magnification ability than a simple microscope.

Explanation;

  • A microscope is a device or an instrument that is used to magnify objects making their details and features visible to enhance visibility and study.
  • There are various types of microscopes from simple microscopes, to compound microscope to electron microscopes, depending on the resolution and magnification and their purpose.
  • Simple microscope is microscope that contains one lens or a group of lens in one unit to magnify specimens therefore its total magnification is limited and can only be used in simple ways.
  • A compound microscope on the other hand has two sets of lenses for magnifying objects, that is the eyepiece lens and objective lens, and thus has a higher total magnification in comparison to simple microscope hence it has a wide range of uses.
