What is the name given to how much of an object or specimen you can see when you look down the microscope?

The term used to describe how much of an object or specimen you can see when looking down a microscope is called the "field of view." It refers to the visible area that can be seen through the microscope lens at a given magnification. The field of view decreases as magnification increases, meaning that at higher magnifications, you see less of the specimen.


What is the name microscope lens close to the object being viewed?

The microscope lens closest to the object being viewed is called the objective lens. This lens is responsible for collecting light from the specimen and creating a magnified image. Objective lenses come in various magnification levels, such as 10x, 40x, and 100x, allowing for detailed observation of the sample.

Why the light microscope also called the compound microscope?

There are more than one type of light microscopes as well as other types of microscopes such as the SEM. The first microscopes were (and still being used) are the simple light microscopes. The compound microscope has that name because it contains two types of lenses that function to magnify an object. A simple microscope is a microscope that uses only one lens for magnification. It is the original design of the light microscope. Van Leeuwenhoek’s research used this type.
