Chapter 4, Problem F4.8A
Summary Introduction
To label:Various parts ofthe compound microscope.
Introduction:
Amicroscope that has more than one lens and owns a light source is a compound light microscope. In this ocular, lenses are in binocular eyepieces and objective lenses in nosepiece closer to specimen.It can view the magnified image of the small object on a glass slide and achieve a higher level of magnification in comparison to low power microscopes. Its magnification is between 40x to 1000x. The magnification is achieved by an objective lens that has a shorter focal length and the eyepiece that has a larger focal length.

What are the mechanical parts of microscope and their functions? Refer to column B in the image attached.
Assume you are observing the diatom pictured in Figure 1 using the 10X lens in a compound light microscope. You move to the 40X lens and then again to the 100X lens by only rotating the turret (remember that the lenses are parfocal), without making any other adjustments to the microscope.
c) After making your adjustments, you notice that the midline of the diatom is in focus while the remainder is blurry. Explain, based on microscopy principles, why this has occurred
Provide a description of the procedure to prepare an acidic stain of bacteria using Nigrosin as it would appear in the Methods section.
In a compound light microscope, which objective focuses closest to the slide?
