◉ (Lab 2) Coarse adjustment. Answer: Function: focus at low
magnifications only
Location: large knob on the side of microscope
◉ (Lab 2) Fine adjustment. Answer: Function: focus at low and high
magnifications
Location: small knob on the side of the microscope
◉ (Lab 2) Magnification. Answer: The number of times larger an
image appears than its real size
◉ (Lab 2) Resolution. Answer: Effectiveness by which two points can
be perceived as distant
◉ (Lab 2) Contrast. Answer: The difference between light and dark
parts of the image
◉ (Lab 2) Depth of field. Answer: As magnification increases, depth
of field decreases
, ◉ (Lab 2) Light microscope. Answer: Uses lenses to magnify and
focus light rays that are shined through or reflected by an object
◉ (Lab 2) Dissecting microscope. Answer: Type of light microscope;
used to examine the surface of small organisms such as insects or
large cells; provides a 3D view of relatively low magnification (10x)
◉ (Lab 2) Compound microscope. Answer: Type of light microscope;
provides much greater magnification (1000x), sued to view thinly
sliced tissues, individual cells, and some subcellular surfaces
◉ (Lab 2) Electron microscope. Answer: Uses electromagnets rather
than lenses to magnify and focus beams of electrons
◉ (Lab 2) Scanning electron microscope (SEM). Answer: Provides
views of the surface of cells
◉ (Lab 2) Transmission electron microscope (TEM). Answer:
Provides high reolution, 2D view of thinly-sliced cells
◉ (Lab 2) What is the disadvantage of electron microscopy?.
Answer: Preparing a specimen for EM involves killing it
