practising new skills #1
Here are the parts of the microscopes labeled and named for you. Keep
this page to learn the parts of the microscope
Adjustment mechanisms (Course Focus/Fine Focus) - an apparatus that
moves the optic tube up and down to focus on the specimen
Arm - portion of microscope that connects the body to the base
Base - a stable bottom for the microscope to stand upright (not labeled)
Iris Diaphragm – Allows light to settle onto slide
Ocular Lens or Eyepiece - lenses at the viewing end of a microscope or
telescope
Lenses or Objective - lens at the end of a microscope nearest the object
Stage - a platform on top of the base of the microscope on which
specimen are placed
Stage Clip – clips on top of stage that allows you to secure the specimen or
slide.
Revolving Nosepiece – a portion of the microscope that allows you to
switch back and forth between lense powers.
Power Switch – on/off button that powers the light.
Projection Lens – the source of light used.
