Solution

The microscope is an instrument with the help of which we can see things that are too small to see with our naked eyes.
It works like a magnifying lens but is much more powerful.

There are two components in a microscope- the structural component and the visual components.
Structural components are the head/body, base and arm.
Visual components of a microscope include eyepiece, objective, nosepiece, coarse and fine adjustment knobs, and stage.
