which microscope uses a series of lenses to magnify an object in steps?\no electron microscope\no simple…

Brief Explanations:

A compound light microscope uses multiple lenses (an objective lens and an eyepiece lens) to magnify an object in steps. An electron microscope uses electrons instead of light. A simple microscope has only one lens. A scanning microscope is a general - term and not the one that magnifies in steps with a series of lenses like a compound light microscope.

Answer:

C. compound light microscope
