The individual bacteria would appear larger under the magnification of 40X. Thus, the correct option is A.
<h3>What is Magnification?</h3>
Magnification may be defined as the power of a microscope to deliver an image of an entity at a scale larger and sometimes smaller than its genuine size.
Bacillus subtilis is a distinct germ, that is rod-shaped in structure and is Gram-positive. Under the 40X microscope, it looks as rough, opaque, fuzzy white, or narrowly yellow with irregular edges.
The size of the entity or any object under the microscope of 40X magnification is 5mm, while the of the entity or any object under the microscope of 10X magnification is 1-2mm.
Therefore, it is well described above.
