PLEASE HELP!! After getting the slide and microscope ready, Stella is eager to see the microscopic pond water specimen! She crouches around her microscope and aligns her eye with the microscope’s eyepiece. But she's only able to see a bright white light. At this point, no specimens or cells are visible on Stella's pond water slide. After taking a moment to collect her thoughts, Stella realizes she can't see any lifeforms because a. the microscope is not yet in focus b. the microscope is not plugged in c. there are no specimens on the slide d. she hasn't fastened the slide to the stage

she hasn't fastened the slide to the stage

Explanation:

In Microscopy even if the slide is not yet in focus,she will be able to see part of the slide which may appear as transparent image.Therefore this is a wrong answer.

If the microscope is not plugged it light can not come up.

If there are no specimen on the slide,the slide will still as transparent image at the focus.

No doubt Stella forgot to fasten  the slide to the stage.,therefore the specimen on the slide was not in focus of the objective lens,rather she was focusing on the stage only,hence the visible white light.

Students make these mistakes in microscopy,they sometimes  place the slide on the stage,but forget to fasten the stage clip,thus the slide is not in focus of the incident light,which gives no reflection to the viewer's eyes.
