Q

ms part: light

A

a steady light source (110v) used in place of a mirror. If your microscope has a mirror, it is used to reflect light from an external light source up through the bottom of the stage.

Q

ms part: stage

A

the flat platform where you place your slides. Stage clips hold the slides in place. If your microscope has a mechanical stage, you will be able to move the slide around by turning two knobs. One moves it left and right, the other moves it forward and back.

Q

ms part: revolving nosepiece

Q

ms part: objective lenses

A

usually you will find 3 or 4 objective lenses on a microscope. They almost always consist of 4x, 10x, 40x and 100x powers. When coupled with a 10x (most common) eyepiece lens, we get total magnification of 40x (4x times 10x), 100x, 400x, and 1000x.

Q

ms part: condenser lens

A

the purpose of the condenser lens is to focus the light onto the specimen. Condenser lenses are most useful at the highest powers (400x and above). Microscopes with a stage condenser lens render a sharper image than those with no lens (at 400x). If your microscope has a maximum power of 400x, you will get the maximum benefit by using a condenser lenses rated at 0.65 NA or greater. 0.65 NA condenser lenses may be mounted in the stage and work quite well. A big advantage to a stage mounted lens is that there is one less focusing item to deal with. If you go to 1000x then you should have a focusable condenser lens with an N.A. of 1.25 or greater. Most 1000x microscopes use 1.25 Abbe condenser lens systems. The Abbe condenser lens can be moved up and down. It is set very close to the slide at 1000x and moved further away at the lower powers.

Q

ms part: diaphragm or iris

A

Many microscopes have a rotating disk under the stage. This diaphragm has different sized holes and is used to vary the intensity and size of the cone of light that is projected upward into the slide. There is no set rule regarding which setting to use for a particular power. Rather, the setting is a function of the transparency of the specimen, the degree of contrast you desire and the particular objective lens in use.

Q

Parfocal microscope

A

objectives stay in focus when magnification is changed; i.e., if the microscope is switched from a higher power objective (e.g., 40×) to a lower power objective (e.g., 10×), the object stays in focus.

Q

Test for proteins…

A

millon test - assays for a phenol group of amino acid tyrosine

biuret test - assays for peptide bonds in protein

37
Q

test for carbohydrates…

A

benedict’s test - tests for free aldehyde or ketone groups of reducing sugars ex: glucose

glucose reduces Cu2+ to benedict’s solution to Cu+ which forms a red solution

(this won’t work with disaccharides)

disaccharides must be treated with HCI first so that it’s converted to glucose. then you can try benedict’s test

38
Q

Iodine test

A

tests for polysaccharides. iodine turns black blue color

39
Q

lipids test

A

grease spot test - translucent grease spot left on brown paper

sudan IV dye test - lipid solube solution has affinity for lipids. attaches to dye and then dye will be seperate from solution confirming presence of lipids

40
Q

A

Brownian movement

44
Q

___: Solute concentration is the same as that inside the cell; no net water movement across the plasma membrane

A

45
Q

___: Solute concentration is greater than that inside the cell; cell loses water

47
Q

___ is the movement of ions or molecules across a cell membrane into a region of higher concentration, assisted by enzymes and requiring energy.

A

active transport

48
Q

___ is the process of particles, which are sometimes called solutes, moving through a solution or gas from an area with a higher number of particles to an area with a lower number of particles. The areas are typically separated by a membrane.
