Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

After seeing an object on a slide at the low-power objective of the microscope and it disappears on changing to high power, the following can be done to resolve the problem

1. Drop a few drops of immersion oil on the slide and view again under high the power objective.

2. If the object is still not visible after the action above, return the microscope to the low-power objective and make sure the object is refocused and centered. Then carefully change back to the high power objective and use the fine adjustment to bring it into focus.
