Q

located in the base, provides the light that passes through the condenser, the specimen, the lenses and finally into your eyes

A

sub stage light

17
Q

circular area on stage through which light passes

A

aperture

18
Q

moves the slide on stage

A

mechanical stage controls

19
Q

lenses of various powers of magnification

A

objective lense

20
Q

total magnification is calculated by

A

multiplying the power of ocular lens by the power of the objective lens

21
Q

concentrates light on the specimen

A

condensor

22
Q

regulates the amount of light passing through the specimen

A

iris diaphragm lever

23
Q

connects the objective lenses to the head of the microscope

A

rotating nosepiece

24
Q

magnifies the specimen

A

ocular and objective lens

25
Q

Define working distance

A

is the distance between the specimen and the bottom of the objective lens

26
Q

What happens to working distance as total magnification increases?

A

it decreases

27
Q

The relationship between magnification and field size is inverse and equal. If the field diameter for the 4x objective is 4.5mm, then what is the field diameter when using the 10x objective

A

1.8mm

28
Q

Begin the focusing process with the

A

scanning lens/lowest power

29
Q

Store the microscope with the ? in place

A

lowest power lens

30
Q

The coarse adjustment knob can be used with ? lens

A

low

31
Q

As you move from lower magnification to higher magnification field diameter will:

A

decrease

32
Q

As you move from lower magnification to higher magnification working distance will:

A

decrease
