A
Illumination
B
Electricity
C
Resolution
D
Magnification
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The resolving power of a microscope is the most important feature of the optical system and influences the ability to distinguish between fine details of a particular specimen.

Detailed explanation-2: -The resolving power of a microscope is taken as the ability to distinguish between two closely spaced Airy disks (or, in other words, the ability of the microscope to distinctly reveal adjacent structural detail).

Detailed explanation-3: -Resolving power (or resolution) is a measure of the ability to distinguish fine detail. In other words, it is a measure of how close together two points need to be before they can no longer be distinguished as two separate points.

Detailed explanation-4: -Introduction. The numerical aperture of a microscope objective is the measure of its ability to gather light and to resolve fine specimen detail while working at a fixed object (or specimen) distance.
