EXPLAIN (10 minutes)

What is a Compound Microscope?

A compound microscope is defined as:

 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. The other type of optical
microscope is a simple microscope.

So can someone tell what’s the difference between

the two optical microscope?
Yes, Mr. Co?

The difference between simple and compound

maker Zacharias Janssen in early 1590.

The compound microscope is mainly used for

studying the structural details of cell, tissue, or
sections of organs. It means that every part of it is
very important.
Lets move on to your answer in our Point Me In
activity and lets find out if your answers are correct
by identifying its function.

ELABORATE (10 minutes)

So as I’ve said earlier, Microscopes are devices

used to magnify small objects, allowing them to be
seen by the naked eye. Most microscopes have
several different powerful lenses attached to them,
allowing the viewer to inspect the content at more
than 100 times its actual size. However,
microscopes are extremely expensive, so you want
to make sure you handle the device properly.

And now for us to attain more knowledge about the

proper handling and storing of compound
microscope, lets have this activity. Answers:
