None of the above

Detailed explanation-1: -Start Low! Since the 4x objective lens has the least magnification, but a larger field of view, it allows for more of the specimen to be seen, as well as locating the part of the sample you wish to view. This in turn makes it easier to focus on the sample.
Detailed explanation-2: -Your microscope has 4 objective lenses: Scanning (4x), Low (10x), High (40x), and Oil Immersion (100x).
Detailed explanation-3: -The 4x objective lens has the lowest power and, therefore the highest field of view. As a result, it is easier to locate the specimen on the slide than if you start with a higher power objective.
Detailed explanation-4: -Scanning Objective Lens (4x) A scanning objective lens provides the lowest magnification power of all objective lenses.
Detailed explanation-5: -The statement is true. When using a microscope, you should always start with the lowest power objective when first viewing a specimen. Typically light microscopes have 4x, 10, 40x, and 100x objectives, therefore, you should start with the 4x objective.
