Answer 2

Enlargement best describes the image of an object viewed through a microscope.

To properly understand this answer, we have to know more about the types of images formed by the lens. (the microscope also works with the help of the lens)

Types of images formed by the lens :

• W.r.t. the size comparison of the image and the real object, a lens can produce three types of images - 1) same size (object size = image size), 2) magnified or enlarges (image size > object size), 3) diminished (object size > image size).
• Also, there are other categorisations of images like - real or virtual image etc.

Now, in case of microscope, we view the large appearance of small objects through the eyepiece of the microscope. Which means, image size is much more greater than the object size. That's why, this can be called an enlargement (or, magnification).

Hence, enlargement describes the image of an object viewed through a microscope.
