Question | Answer |
eyepiece | ocular lens magnifies 10x |
body tube | carries filtered light from objective lens to ocular lens |
coarse adjustment knob | generally focuses specimen |
fine adjustment knob | precisely focuses specimen |
nosepiece | holds objective lenses, adjustable |
objectives | variable magnifying lenses |
stage clip | holds slides in place, adjusts location |
arm | connects magnifying lenses to base of microscope |
stage | location of specimen |
mechanical stage | holds slide/ specimen in place, allows for slight rearrangement of location |
iris diaphragm | allows increase or decrease of light through condenser |
condenser | concentrates light rays on specimen |
inclination joint | point of arm adjustment (bends) |
pillar | connects base to stage |
base | foot of microscope |
mirror | reflects lights through condenser |
sub stage adjustment lever | adjust height of condenser |
objective | low power 10x high power 45x oil immersion 97x |
total magnification | magnification of ocular X magnification of objective lens |
low power= high power= oil immersion= | 10x X 10x= 100x 45x X 10x= 450x 97x X 10x= 970x |
transport | 1. firmly grasp the curved arm of the microscope 2. lift microscope up 3. place the other hand under there base of the microscope and carry to desired location. |
storage | 1. raise body tube & remove slide 2. condenser down 3. clean off objectives w/ lens tissue 4. place 10x objective over stage opening 5. lower body tube w/ course adjustment knob (all the way down) place cover over microscope |
parfocal | microscopes are constructed so that changing from a lower to a higher magnification requires only an adjustment w/ the fine adjustment knob. always focus on 10x first before going on to 45x or 97x. locate the area slide u wish to examineunder low power |
place microscope | 8-14 inches away from light source |
raise condenser | all the way up |
use two hands to | adjust the concave side of the mirror so the brightest possible light comes through the glass top of the condenser |
lower condenser | half a turn |
looking from the side | lower the 10x objective close to the slide w/o touching |
to focus | look into the eyepiece and turn course adjustment knob toward yourself slowly |
how to bring into clear focus | the fine adjustment knob |
after focusing on 10x | swing 45x objective into place |
final focus 45x | w/ adjustment knob |
oil immersion | raise condenser all the way up turn nosepiece so objective is moved to the side place 1 drop of oil on the slide where light is shining through the stage turn nosepiece so 97x is in the oil focus w/ fine adjustment only |
