Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the main structural parts of a microscope: the base, arm, stage, and objective lens.
Identify the function of each part: the base supports the microscope, the stage holds the slide, the objective lens magnifies the specimen, and the arm connects the base and the head.
Recall that the arm is designed to be grasped when carrying the microscope, providing a sturdy handle.
Eliminate other options based on their functions: the stage and objective lens are not meant for carrying, and the base is too heavy and flat to serve as a handle.
Conclude that the arm is the correct part used as a handle for carrying the microscope.
