Explanation / Answer

Answer 15] Images viewed with compound microscope are 2 dimensional whereas images viewed with dissecting microscope are 3 dimensional because :

A compound microscope - works by illuminating the slide from underneath with a light bulb.The specimen is then magnified by a series of lenses ,one near the slide called objective lens and one near the top called the eyepiece.this results in two dimensional image.

Dissecting microscope- It has two eyepieces instead of one.two eyepieces that send a different image to the right and left eye.The specimen is usually lit from above ,rather than underneath therefore it can produce 3 dimensional image.
