When carrying a compound microscope always take care to lift it by both the arm and base simultaneously.
The viewer spins the nosepiece to select different objective lenses.
This activity asks you to label the parts of a typical compound light microscope.
To better understand the structure and function of a microscope we need to take a look at the labeled microscope diagrams of the compound and electron microscope.
Eyepiece or ocular is what you look through at the top of the microscope.
