Select one:

A. magnification, resolution
B. resolution, magnification
C. sample size, clarity

Answer 1

Answer: Option A; magnification, resolution

Explanation: Nose piece does the changes in the position of objective lens, and the function of objective lens is to magnify the sample. So the first blank is magnification. Fine knob makes the image look sharper, which means its resolution is adjusted. So the second blank is resolution. Sample size does not affect the sample observed through a microscope. Thus, option C and D are incorrect.
