What type of microscope bends light and uses multiple lenses to magnify a cell?

The type of microscope that bends light and uses multiple lenses to magnify a cell is called a compound light microscope. Here are the steps it uses:

1. The light source in the microscope shines light through the condenser, which focuses the light onto the specimen.
2. The light then passes through the specimen.
3. The objective lens, which is close to the specimen, magnifies the image of the specimen. This is the first stage of magnification.
4. The light carrying the magnified image then travels up to the eyepiece lens (also known as the ocular lens) where it is magnified further. This is the second stage of magnification.
5. The viewer then sees the twice-magnified image of the specimen.
