You are looking at Bacillus subtilis under the 10X objective. Then you switch over to the 40x objective. Under which magnification do the individual bacteria appear larger? 40x 10x

Step 1
In this scenario, we have two magnifications: 10X and 40X. These numbers represent the power of the microscope's objective lens, which determines how much the lens magnifies the specimen. Show more…
