front 1 What is the working distance? | back 1 The distance from the objective lens to the top of the slide. |
front 2 How does the orientation of a letter change under the microscope? | back 2 It is "flipped" to the left and turned upside down. |
front 3 Move the slide away from you as you view it through the ocular lens. In what direction does the image move? | back 3 Down. |
front 4 Move the slide to the left. In what direction does the image move? | back 4 Right. |
front 5 Describe the importance of parfocal. | back 5 Microscopes are parfocal, meaning once focused at a lower magnification, only minor adjustments will be made to focus the specimen at higher magnifications. |
front 6 As you move up in magnification, does the image become larger or smaller? | back 6 Larger. |
front 7 Moving up in magnification, does the field increase or decrease? | back 7 Decrease. |
front 8 Is it more desirable to increase or to decrease light when changing to higher magnification? | back 8 Increase light because the objective lens opening decreases with increasing magnification, allowing less light to enter. |
