The lenses that enlarge an image on a microscope are called objective lenses. These lenses come in various magnification powers, typically ranging from low to high (e.g., 4x, 10x, 40x, 100x). The total magnification is determined by multiplying the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece or ocular lens. Together, they allow for detailed observation of small specimens.
