When you move a specimen away from you on the stage, it appears to move ____ through the eyepiece.
A
away from you
B
to the left
C
towards you
D
to the right
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Similarly, if the slide is moved left while looking through the microscope, it will appear to move right, and if moved down, it will seem to move up. This occurs because microscopes use two sets of lenses to magnify the image.

Detailed explanation-2: -9. The proper way to use a microscope is to look through the eyepiece with both eyes open to help avoid eye strain. Remember, everything is upside down and backwards. When you move the slide to the right, the image goes to the left!

Detailed explanation-3: -The eyepiece, or ocular, magnifies the primary image produced by the objective; the eye can then use the full resolution capability of the objective. The microscope produces a virtual image of the specimen at the point of most distinct vision, generally 250 mm (10 in.)
