What is specimen?what do we use to view a specimen?​

Answer»

Answer:

Specimen or slide: The specimen is the object being examined. Most specimens are mounted on slides, flat rectangles of thin glass. The specimen is placed on the glass and a cover slip is placed over the specimen. This allows the slide to be easily INSERTED or removed from the microscope.

Today, most MICROSCOPES are CALLED compound microscopes, and use two lenses for GREATER magnification. The upper lens is called the ocular lens or eyepiece, and the lower lens (or lenses, as there may be a choice of sizes) is called the objective lens.

Hope it helps :)
