Answer:

A compound microscope

Step-by-step explanation:

A compound microscope is an instrument used to view the structure of the microscopic organism using the light source and the lenses.

The compound microscope contains an eyepiece which contains the ocular lens and the objective lenses n the nosepiece closer to the specimen.

To view the living organism of the ponds, a compound microscope especially a bright field microscope is used when the light from the lower portion brightens the sample and the object appears darker.

Thus, the compound microscope is the correct answer.
