Answer:

contains many individual light detectors, each with its own lens

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound eye is found mainly in insects and crustaceans, it is composed of individual receptor units, each with its focus, sensing nerve; each one gives a small image of the environment, so the image is mosaic type, not a complete integral image of the environment.
