Why is it important to focus specimens under the Low Power Objectve before observing it under the High Power Objective?
It allows you to center the specimen, and if it is set up correctly, then when you switch objectives it should still be there and only need fine focusing. It also reduces the chance of crushing the specimen and/or breaking the slide or the lens as the LPO is further away from the slide than the HPO.

How do you make the proper wet mount of the letter e?
1. Use the eyedropper to place a drop of water on the center of a microscope slide2. Use the tweezers to position the letter "e" in the center of the drop.3. Holding the cover slip at a 45 degree angle, lower it slowly over the drop of water. Here's what the letter "e" looks like under low and high power. As you can see, the specimen appears to be upside down and backwards. As you can see, when you switch to high power the field of view DECREASES. Field of view is the amount of the specimen you are able to see. The higher the power, the less you see of the entire specimen. This is why it is always better to begin focusing on the lowest power possible. Beginning on the lowest power gives you the Greatest field of view, which means you will be able to see the entire specimen. For example, you most likely learned the alphabet in preschool, yet it is difficult to tell that the specimen under high power in the picture above is the letter "e".

Then you examine it closely when you are close. Finally you check it to make it will support your weight. Then you sit down. Then you sit down. You start with the lens with the lowest magnification to locate the specimen. You move the specimen into the center of view. etc.
