Write a 125 word summary of what you have learned in "Introducing the Microscope". Be sure to include steps on how to focus, how to solve for magnification, and what a field of view is and how to measure it.

Answer:

A microscope is one of the essential tools which are used by scientists very often. A microscope is to get a closer look at smaller objects. A light microscope can send light. A light that focused in a tight breath whereby that light passes through a sample, which later it can create an image. This image catches to different lenses, which magnifies it until it reaches the camera. There are different types of microscope, for example, a compound light microscope, a Simple light microscope, and a monocular microscope. In a simple light microscope, only one lens that used to magnify an object, and it is not able to reach a higher magnification. In a compound light microscope, it uses two lenses to produce an image.

I hope this helps

A light microscope uses focused light and lenses to magnify an object. Light microscopes come in several forms. (1) Simple light microscopes use a single lens to magnify an object and cannot reach high magnification just like a handheld lens whose highest clear magnification in the best conditions is 25x. (2) Compound light microscopes use two sets of lenses - an objective lens and an eye piece. This is the type of light microscope whose magnification power reaches between 1000x and 2000x.

I hope this helps!!!
