Correct Answer: Resolving power


Solution : The correct option is resolving power.

The ability of an optical system, such as a telescope or microscope, to recognise two objects far off as distinct and separate objects is referred to as resolving power. It assesses the system's capacity to deliver precise, in-depth photographs of objects close to one another. Resolving power is essential for detecting minute details on celestial objects in astronomy.
