Depth of field is ________.A)  greatest at high power and decreases as magnification increasesB)  greatest at low power and increases as magnification increasesC)  greatest at low power and decreases as magnification increasesD)  greatest at high power and increases as magnification increases

Jordan Balser · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Depth of field is the distance between the nearest and farthest objects in focus. At low power (lower magnification), more objects are within the depth of field, resulting in a greater depth of field. As magnification increases (higher power), the depth of field decreases because fewer objects are within the depth of field.

Depth of field is ________.

A) greatest at high power and decreases as magnification increases
B) greatest at low power and increases as magnification increases
C) greatest at low power and decreases as magnification increases
D) greatest at high power and increases as magnification increases
