Answer:
Antony Van Leeuwenhoek was an ordinary public official who ground lenses and made microscopic observations as a hobby. He is said to have constructed 400 microscopes. Basically, all his microscopes were called simple microscopes because they consisted of a single Bioconvex lens. Some of these microscopes had a considerable magnifying power up to 200 times.
