I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The microscope that Jack used is a light microscope. This type of microscope uses slides where a sample to be observed is placed. Also, it has a light source in order to have clear observations.

Answer;

Light microscope


Explanation;

A light microscope uses focused light and lenses to magnify a specimen, usually a cell.

Light microscopes may be simple microscopes or compound microscopes.

Simple microscopes uses a single lens to magnify an object and cannot reach high magnification.

Compound light microscopes use two sets of lenses that is; an objective lens and an eyepiece, to produce images.
