Solution

The answer is the second one (B): Binocular.

Explanation for each option:

  • Parfocal: This term refers to a microscope's ability to stay in focus when the objective lens is changed. It does not describe the number of eyepieces.
  • Binocular: This term describes a microscope that has two eyepieces, allowing the user to view the specimen with both eyes. This is the correct description for the design mentioned in the question.
  • Monocular: This term describes a microscope that has only one eyepiece. It does not match the description of having two eyepieces.
  • Oil immersion lens: This term refers to a specific type of objective lens used to increase resolution by immersing both the objective lens and the specimen in a layer of oil. It does not describe the number of eyepieces.

Summary: The design of having two eyepieces built into a light microscope is best described as "Binocular."
