12. The image to the left is placed
on the slide. A student then views
the letter “f” under low power.

resembles the image under low
power?
13. A student sees the image to the

14. The total magnification of an
image is the result of the
combined magnifications of the

objectives
15. A student views some cheek cells

16. A student changes the objective
of a microscope from 10x to 50x.

17. A student determined that exactly 10
pollen grains could fit along the
diameter of the field of view of a
microscope. If each pollen grain has a
diameter of 200 micrometers, what is
the diameter in millimeters of this
microscope's field of view?
(1) 2,000 mm
(2) 2 mm
(3) 5 mm
(4) 500 mm
18. To locate a specimen on a prepared slide with a
compound microscope, a student should begin with
the low-power objective rather than the highpower objective because the
(1) field of vision is smaller under low power than
under high power
(2) field of vision is larger under low power than
under high power
(3) specimen does not need to be stained for
observation under low power but must be stained
for observation under high power
(4) amount of the specimen that can be observed
under low power is less than the amount that can be
observed under high power
19. An unstained wet mount
preparation of cheek cells shows
few details. Which substance could
be added to the slides to make the
details more visible?
(1) stain
(2) water
(3) Nothing should be added
20. After switching from the highpower to the low-power objective lens
of a compound light microscope, the
area of the low-power field will
appear
(1) larger and brighter
(2) smaller and brighter
(3) larger and darker
(4) smaller and darker
21. The diagram represents a hydra as viewed with a
compound light microscope. If the hydra moves to
the right of the slide preparation, which diagram
below best represents what will be viewed through
the microscope?
22. Which part of a microscope
should be used with the low power
objective, but not with the highpower objective?
a. fine adjustment
b. diaphragm
c. coarse adjustment
d. eyepiece
23. Which of the following describes proper
microscope care and technique.
a. Be sure to carry the microscope upright, with one
hand on the arm and the other under the base.
b. To protect the lenses of the microscope, place it
down gently and don't drag it across the tabletop.
c. Always begin focusing with the lowest power
objective lens available.
d. Only use the coarse focus knob with the low power
objective lenses.
e. All the above are examples of correct microscope
care and technique.
24. Which of the following regulates
the amount of light passing through
the slide specimen on the microscope
stage?
a. nosepiece
b. objective lens
c. diaphragm
d. fine adjustment knob
25. An increase in magnification
causes
a. a decrease in the field of view.
b. a decrease in the working distance.
c. a decrease in the depth of field.
d. all of the above.
26. When the letter e slide is viewed
with the microscope, it appears
a. right side up.
b. right side up and backwards.
c. upside down.
d. upside down and backwards.
27. Which part holds the two or three objective lenses, and
rotates around in a circle, allowing you to choose which
objective lens you want to use?
28. What holds the upper portion of the microscope above
the stage and is also where you grab the microscope anytime
you decide to take it for a walk?
29. This part allows you to focus while using the high power
objective.
30. What holds the slide in place?
31. What's the long, skinny tube that holds the
eyepiece above the microscope, and allows light to
travel up from the objective lenses to the
eyepiece?
32. What parts are attached to the nosepiece and
vary in size?
33. On what part of the microscope do you place
your specimen?
