If an image is blurry under a microscope, how do you make it clearer?
A
Change the objective lens to a higher magnification.
B
Turn on the light or adjust the mirror.
C
Turn the focusing wheel until the image is focused.
D
Use a different eyepiece lens.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In microscopy, more light = clear and crisp images. By placing a substance such as immersion oil with a refractive index equal to that of the glass slide in the space filled with air, more light is directed through the objective and a clearer image is observed.

Detailed explanation-2: -One way of increasing the optical resolving power of the microscope is to use immersion liquids between the front lens of the objective and the cover slip. Most objectives in the magnification range between 60x and 100x (and higher) are designed for use with immersion oil.
