Which statement best explains why cells were observed in more detail using a compound microscope than a simple microscope? a.) a compound microscope has greater magnification ability than a simple microscope. b.) the compound microscope was invented before the simple microscope. c.) a compound microscope is much easier to manufacture than a simple microscope. d.) compound microscopes were more common than simple microscopes.

Answer;

A. A compound microscope has greater magnification ability than a simple microscope.

Explanation;A microscope is a device or an instrument that is used to magnify objects making their details and features visible to enhance visibility and study.There are various types of microscopes from simple microscopes, to compound microscope to electron microscopes, depending on the resolution and magnification and their purpose.Simple microscope is microscope that contains one lens or a group of lens in one unit to magnify specimens therefore its total magnification is limited and can only be used in simple ways.A compound microscope on the other hand has two sets of lenses for magnifying objects, that is the eyepiece lens and objective lens, and thus has a higher total magnification in comparison to simple microscope hence it has a wide range of uses.

A) a compound microscope has a greater magnification ability than a simple microscope.
