QuestionAnswer
Which statement most accurately describes ocular lens? The lens through which you look to view the slide
Which statement most accurately describes iris diaphragm? Controls the amount of light that passes through the slide
Which statement most accurately describes arm? Supports the body of the microscope
Which statement most accurately describes objective lens? Lenses of various powers of magnification
Which statement most accurately describes coarse adjustment knob? Moves the stage up and down; provides gross focusing
Which statement most accurately describes stage? The surface on which the slide sits
Which statement most accurately describes fine adjustment knob? Allows fine tuning of the focus
Which statement most accurately describes lamp? The microscope's light source
Magnification of the ocular lens is usually 10X
The lens that provides 100X magnification is the oil-immersion lens.
Before you begin, you should make sure that the objective lens is switched to the lowest-power magnification.
How should you carry the microscope? One hand holding the base with the other carrying the arm
What is the depth of focus? The thickness of a specimen that is in sharp focus.
What should you do if your slide looks dramatically different from the slide in your lab manual? Change the magnification Get a new slide Move the slide All of the above
If you are having trouble making out details on your slide, what can you do? Adjust the focus with the fine adjustment knob. Reduce the amount of light with the iris diaphragm. Both a and b.
What should you use to clean the lenses? Lens paper and lens cleaning solution
What is the first step you should take to focus the image on the slide? Examine the slide with the naked eye
What is the second step you should take to focus the image on the slide? Begin on low power
What is the third step you should take to focus the image on the slide? Focus with the coarse focus knob
What is the last step you should take to focus the image on the slide? Refine the focus with the fine adjustment knob.

Which of the following statements accurately defines vesicle? Small, membrane-bounded structure that buds off from the plasma membrane or another membrane-bounded structure
Which of the following statements accurately defines diffusion? The movement of solute from a high concentration to a low concentration
Which of the following statements accurately defines osmosis? The movement of solvent from a solution with a lower solute concentration to a solution with a higher solute concentration through a selectively permeable membrane
Which of the following statements accurately defines tonicity? Comparative measure of the osmotic pressure of two solutions ; The ability of one solution to cause water movement by osmosis from another solution
Which of the following statements accurately defines cell cycle? Continual process of growth and replication of cells
Which of the following statements accurately defines interphase? Portion of the cell cycle during which growth is initiated and DNA is replicated
Which of the following statements accurately defines mitosis? Portion of the cell cycle during which the cell divides its organelles, cytosol, and replicated DNA among two identical daughter cells
