What is the function of high and low power objectives on a microscope?

A low power objective is essential on any microscope, It allows you to quickly scan a large area of the specimen, and to locate those areas which need closer study with a high power objective. For example, a histologic section of liver might measure 20 by 40 mm. With a 4x objective you can scan the entire piece of tissue in a minute or less. If there is a 1 mm tumor somewhere in the section, you will find it during this scan, and can them zoom in on it with the high power objectives. Trying to scan the entire slide with a 40x objective would take a long time because in any given field you can see only 1/100 the surface area included in a 4x scan), and you could easily miss a 1 mm tumor entirely. but this didnt helpso hanks aot for nothing
