Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The ____ of the microscope would give you the SMALLEST field of view.
A
low power objective
B
medium power objective
C
high power objective
D
stage
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Each lens has a different magnifying power. The smallest objective (scanning objective) is the smallest magnification at 4x, followed by the low power objective at 10x, the high power objective at 40x, and the highest magnification (immersion oil objective) at 100x.

Detailed explanation-2: -A high-power field (HPF), when used in relation to microscopy, references the field of view under the maximum magnification power of the objective being used. Often, this represents a 400-fold magnification when referenced in scientific papers.

Detailed explanation-3: -The low-power objective lens usually magnifies 10 . The high-power objective lens usually magnifies 40 . To calculate the total magnification with which you are viewing an object, multiply the magnification of the eyepiece lens by the magnification of the objective lens you are using.
