The high-power objective lens rests very close to the slide so adjustments such as focusing (which moves the lens up and down) could potentially push the lens right through the slide. It's usually advisable to take your eyes off the eyepieces and actually get to an angle that allows you to watch the space between the lens and slide when changing to the high power to avoid breaking the slide if the lens is already too low.

Which objective should the coarse focus knob be used?

The coarse adjustment knob is only used with the low-power objective lens (usually 4x) because all the other ones are too long and the coarse adjustment knob may bring the slide up too qucikly, therefore it might break the slide or crush the specimen being observed. When using the medium (10x) and high (40x) power objective lens, it is best to use the fine adjustment knob to focus on the details instead.

Students are using light microscopes to observe slides of cells that were obtained by scraping the insides of their cheeks When they observe the cells under high power the images are fuzzy They adj?

When observing cells under a light microscope at high power, the images may appear fuzzy due to limitations in the microscope's resolution and the thickness of the cells. To get clearer images, students can try using immersion oil to enhance resolution and adjusting the focus carefully to find the clearest view of the cells. Additionally, ensuring the microscope slides are clean and properly prepared can also improve image quality.
