In microscopy, the term 'resolution' is used to describe the ability of a microscope to distinguish detail. In other words, this is the minimum distance at which two distinct points of a specimen can still be seen - either by the observer or the microscope camera - as separate entities

Myschool your answer is WRONG.
Please correct it.

Resolution is the ability to distinguish two objects from each other.

Magnification is the ability to make small objects seem larger, such as making a microscopic organism visible.
