    1. How do you carry a microscope? You carry a microscope with 2 hands: one
    grips the arm while the other one supports the base.

    2. If the ocular lens is 10X, what is the Total Magnification of each objective lens?
    a. Scanning (4X): 40X
    b. Low (10X) :100X
    c. High (40X): 400X

    3. Which knob should you NOT use on the high power? WHY?
    Coarse adjustment knob, because by using this, it may damage the high
    power lens.

    4. What is the magnification of the eyepiece? 10X

    5. Why is there an X after each power, like 4X or 100X? It’s called “times,” which
    indicates the number of magnification.

    6. What is the name of the lens in the eyepiece? Ocular lens.

    7. How do you prevent a slide from falling off the stage? By using the stage clip.

    8. Which adjustment knob is used for first focusing? Coarse adjustment knob.

    9. Which adjustment knob is used for sharpening? Fine adjustment knob.

    10. What is the function of the diaphragm? To control the amount of light
    reaching the slide/specimen.

    11. How do you change the objective lenses? You can change the objective
    lenses by turning the revolving nosepiece.

    12. What power must be in place when you first place a slide on the
    microscope stage? Scanning objective

    13. Why is it called a compound light microscope? Because it uses two


    lenses to magnify a specimen.

    14. Increasing magnification decreases field of view. Therefore, which


    magnification power will have the smallest field of view?

    A. 10X B. 40X C. 100X D. 400X
