same length as the HPO but affording a much higher magnification being stamped 100X. It needs a special oil to be placed on object studied. Identified by its white banded color.
A
Scanner
B
Low power objective
C
High power objective
D
Oil immersion objective (OIO)
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, the 10x internal lens multiplied by the 100x objective lens means that the total magnification will be F. 1000x.

Detailed explanation-2: -By placing immersion oil between the glass slide and the oil immersion lens (100X), the light rays at the highest magnification can be retained. Immersion oil has the same refractive index as glass so the oil becomes part of the optics of the microscope.

Detailed explanation-3: -The 100x lens is immersed in a drop of oil placed on the slide in order to eliminate any air gaps and lossof light due to refraction (bending of the light) as the light passes from glass (slide) → air → glass (objective lens).
