B
Diaphragm
C
Course adjustment
D
Stage clips
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -CAUTION: NEVER, EVER, use the coarse adjustment knob with the high power objective. This could break the lens. Multiply the power of the ocular lens, by the power of the objective lens.

Detailed explanation-2: -The gearing mechanism of the adjustment produces a large vertical movement of the stage with only a partial revolution of the knob. Because of this, the coarse adjustment should only be used with low power (4X and 10X objectives) and never with the high power lenses (40X and 100X).

Detailed explanation-3: -Revolving Nosepiece or Turret: This is the part of the microscope that holds two or more objective lenses and can be rotated to easily change power.
