The is usually a glass mirror at the bottom of the microscope to project light up into the thing where you put the object. Do not cover the glass, or you wont be able to see the material you are studying. Also if the is no sunlight, use a light bulb or something...

Seeing things that are smaller than you can see with a magnifying glass.
Optical microscopes use refractive lenses, typically of glass and occasionally of plastic, to focus light into the eye or another light detector. hope it helps... kinda
There are many different kinds of materials the solar ovens are made of, but you can use a pizza box and tin foil, or glass and a card board box.etc.
== == Visual inspection of cells (bacterial, cell cultures), immuno-staining (localisation of a protein of interest), microinjection, ... Microscopes are still in use but modern ones often have sophisticated equipment attached, e.g. lasers and motors for object movement. They are used in cytopathology (looking at pap smears and other specimens from any body site, smeared on glass slides, to search for cancer, precancerous cells, organisms) and pathology (looking at pieces of body parts that have been sliced very thinly and placed on glass slides and stained to search for disease processes). Some scopes are now even computer controlled for use in cytology/cytopathology. Check out Cytyc.com.
Most microscopes have a small lamp below the place where the glass slide is attached.
It depends on the design of the light microscope you are using. Modern microscopes use electric bulbs, but older designs use a mirror to reflect light from the Sun.

mirror
It's a light source.
No - they have a diffraction grid.
The diaphragm adjusts the amount of light
Microscopes act like a magnifying glass, only they are much more powerful.
Early microscopes were indeed a single blob of glass. It was found that using one lens after another, would multiply the magnification. Most laboratory microscopes have a choice of objective lenses of different magnifications, whilst the eyepiece remains the same.
there is a miniature flash light inbeded into it
