Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The objective lens is the lens closest to the slide during a microscopic examination. The ocular lens is the one closest to the eye, while the condenser lens is located beneath the stage and helps to focus the light onto the slide. The term "compound" refers to the fact that there are multiple lenses in the microscope, but it does not specifically refer to the lens closest to the slide.
