The course adjustment knob on a compound light microscope is used for making large changes in focus when initially locating a specimen. It is typically used with low-power objectives to quickly bring the specimen into view. Once the specimen is roughly focused, the fine adjustment knob should be used for precise focusing. Using the course knob with high-power objectives can risk damaging the slide or the lens.

There is a compound light microscope, an scannignn electron microscope, and transmission electron microscope.
compound and light microscopes are used in some labs compound uses a mirror to reflect and a light gives a light source to it
five types of microscopes are: A compound light microscope,the stereo microscope,the electron microscope,a simple microscope(similar to a magnifying glass,and a compound microscope.
Optical, though to see smaller organelles and structures in higher resolution an electron microscope may be necessary.
A compound microscope
Adjustment knobs are used to focus light in a light microscope.
Light microscopes are called compound because a light microscope has more than one lense.

Jack is likely using a compound light microscope. This type of microscope utilizes lenses and a light source to illuminate the specimen, allowing for the observation of details in transparent or semi-transparent samples. The adjustment of the microscope and mirror to create a circle of light indicates that he is focusing the light onto the slide.
The another name for a compound microscope is a light microscope, as it uses light to illuminate the specimen being observed.
A compound light microscope is named for the use of more than one lens to collect and focus light, and magnify the image.
The compound microscope consists of an arm to support base, lens to see through, stage to place the slides, illuminator for steady light and rack stop for adjustment. A dissecting microscope consists of diopter for adjustment, lens for viewing, focus knob for focusing on the subject and rotating objective turret for zoom control.

A light microscope is called a compound microscope because it uses multiple lenses (a compound of lenses) to magnify the image of a specimen. This allows for higher magnification and resolution compared to a simple microscope.
