The image represented by a compound microscope is:
Correct answer: B. Virtual and inverted
- A. Real
- B. Virtual and inverted
- C. Virtual
- D. Real and inverted
Explanation
A compound microscope uses two sets of lenses to magnify an object. The objective lens creates a real, inverted image inside the microscope, but this image is further magnified by the eyepiece lens, which presents a final image that is virtual and inverted to the observer. The eyepiece does not project a real image; rather, it allows the viewer to see a magnified virtual image. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Virtual and inverted'.
