The lowest magnifiction, some microscopes are different but ours start at 40X
The smallest magnification lens on a compound light microscope is the scanning objective lens, typically with a magnification of 4x.
I would assume preview it before viewing it?
The lowest power objective lens should be in place when placing a slide on a microscope stage. This allows for easier focusing and initial viewing of the specimen at a lower magnification before switching to higher magnifications.
To calculate the total magnification, you multiply the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece. In this case, using a 40x objective with a 10x eyepiece results in a total magnification of 400x (40x × 10x = 400x). Thus, you are viewing the cells at 400 times their actual size.
The microscope stage is the platform on which a slide is placed for viewing.
You should start with the lowest magnification lens, typically the scanning lens (4x or 5x), to locate and center the specimen on the slide. This allows you to get a general overview of the slide before increasing the magnification with higher-power objectives.
The stage of the microscope supports the slide that you are viewing. It is a flat platform where you place the slide for observation. The stage usually has clips or a mechanical stage to hold the slide in place during viewing.
As magnification increases, the center of the slide would appear larger and more detailed. This is because magnification enlarges the image of the specimen on the slide, allowing you to see finer features with greater clarity at the center.

To view sperm cells, you will need a microscope with at least 400x magnification, a glass slide, coverslip, and a stain to make the cells more visible. Additionally, you will need a sample of semen to put on the slide for examination.
You should be watching the objective lens move into place to make sure that it is not going to hit the slide.
You start with the lowest magnification. Once you have found the specimen and focused it, you can move it to the next higher magnification. It should still be in focus, although you might need to use the fine adjustment.
