Shortest objective (4x); largest field of vie; least detail
A
medium power objective
B
high power objective
C
low power objective (scanning)
D
eyepiece/ ocular
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Scanning Objective (4X): This shortest objective is useful for getting an overview of the slide (especially handy with some of the slides that contain whole organs like a section of the spinal cord, lung, digestive tract, ovary, etc.).

Detailed explanation-2: -When using an objective lens with a magnification of 4x, the total magnification is 40x and the field of view would have a diameter of around 4.00 mm.

Detailed explanation-3: -The objective lens that provides the largest field of view is B. 4x. The smaller lens means there is more available space to see under the microscope. The 40x lens represents a higher magnification which means a smaller available space to view.
