The compound microscope is the simple microscope used in the early days for higher magnification to view specimens such as cells. The compound microscope is the standard microscope used commonly nowadays.

The digital microscope is a type of optical microscope which makes use of camera and optics to be able to view the images from the microscope to the computer.

What way does a compound microscope differ from a simple microscope?

A compound microscope consists of several lenses operating together, whereas a simple microscope is one lens, like a magnifying glass. A compound microscope gives higher magnification and also better resolution than a simple microscope.

What are the materials used for a compound microscope?

The base of a compound microscope is the very bottom of the microscope. You hold it with one hand and you hold the arm with your other hand to avoid breaking the microscope.


What is the difference between compound microscope and dissecting microscope?

In compound microscope are usually able to magnify an object by 400 times.while dissecting microscope usually only magnify an object by 40 times or less. In compound microscope are used to view very small, relatively thin things, such as cells. In dissecting microscope are used to look at larger objects that have a greater degree of depth such as grains of pollen. In compound microscope is always made with 1 eyepiece. On the other hand dissecting microscope is always made with 2 eyepiece.


What type of microscope aside from the compound light microscope might you use to observe the organisms found in pond water?

You could use a stereo microscope, also known as a dissecting microscope, to observe organisms found in pond water. This type of microscope provides a three-dimensional view of larger specimens at lower magnifications.

How is a simple microscope and a compound microscope different?

The difference lies in the number of lenses that each microscope has. A compound microscope has 2 or more lenses, like those found in most science classrooms. A simple microscope uses only 1 lens.


What is a compound microscope used for in lab equipment?

A compound microscope, like the common optical microscope is used to study objects too small to see with the naked eye. The difference between a common optical microscope, and a compound microscope is the number of objective lenses. A compound microscope will contain several lenses. This reduces distortion, and gives one multiple lenses with which to adjust magnification.

Can you see difference between molecular compound from ionic compound with a microscope?

Yes, if the microscope's enlargement ability is adequate, you can see the crystalline structure in ionic compounds unlike in molecular compounds.
