Stella starts the activity by collecting water from a pond near her school and making a wet mount slide. She places a drop of pond water onto a glass slide and covers the water droplet with a small, glass cover slip. Stella then carefully lowers the stage on the microscope and secures her wet mount slide to the stage using the microscope’s stage clips. Next, Stella turns the base light of the microscope on so that a light is shining from below the stage and spotlighting the specimen on the pond water slide. Stella then rotates the objective lenses on the microscope so that the smallest magnification objective (4X) is aligned with the eyepiece and the slide. Because the eyepiece of her compound microscope has a constant magnification of 10X, Stella’s compound microscope is now set to a 40X magnification power. In addition to the 4X objective lens, Stella’s microscope has 10X and 40X objective lenses. Question Question 1 Based on this information, what is the highest magnification power that Stella's microscope can achieve? 400X 100X 1000X 40X
