A compound light microscope has much greater magnification power than a dissecting microscope.

Good luck!

Answer:

The answer is The compound microscope allows a greater increase in vision than the dissecting microscope.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound microscopes use a rotary system with three different objective lenses, which typically offer magnification of up to 40x. The dissection microscope has no rotating system and only offers magnifications up to 30x. The stage of a dissecting microscope is larger compared to the stage of the compound microscope. The distance between stage and the tube allows you to see larger and three-dimensional objects, unlike the smaller samples, visible with a compound microscope.
