Parts of the Microscope
100
controls the movement of substances in and out of cells.
What is the Cell Membrane
100
Responsible for cleaning up the cell, by getting rid of waste. Found in animal cells only
What are Lysosomes
100
Thick, rigid outer wall found in plant cells, but not animal cells. It provides support and protection for the cell.
What is the Cell Wall
100
Bottom part of the microscope often shaped like a horseshoe.
What is the Base
100

What two parts need to be held of the microscope when carried?

arm and base

200
Also known as a vesicle, they are used as storage and transportation vesicles to move materials in and out of the cell.
What is the Small Vacuole
200
Responsible for inspecting and packaging proteins before they are shipped out to their target areas
What are Golgi Bodies
200
Considered the brain of the cell, where DNA is located.
What is the nucleus
200
Raises or lowers the stage to focus
What is the Course Focus
200

The microscope sample first needs to be focused under this objective lens.

Low, 4 x

300
Structures found in animal cells that aid in cell division.
What are Centrioles
300

Makes lipids and hormones

What is the Smooth ER

300

Large storage compartment used for storing water and other materials needed in plants.

What is the Large Vacuole

300
Raises and lowers the body tube and used to bring objects into focus.
What is the fine focus
300

 Sends light towards the hole in the stage.

What is the Light Source

400
The site of photosynthesis. It is found in plant cells but not in animal cells
What is Chloroplast
400
is responsible for transporting proteins. It acts like a highway of the cell.
What is the Rough ER
400
Supports the body tube. Used to carry the microscope.
What is the Arm
400

the lens that you look through at the top

EYEPIECE or Ocular lens

400
Changes the amount of light reaching the objective lenses, located under the Stage
What is the Diaphragm
500
The power house of the cell responsible for cellular respiration.
What is the Mitochondria
500
Responsible for making proteins in the cell. Found attached to the rough ER and free floating in the cytoplasm.
What are Ribosomes
500

This helps move from 4 to 40 x zoom of  the objective lens.

rotating nosepiece

500

Magnifies the specimen at a medium power

What is the Med power objective, or 10 x 

500

Magnifies the specimen at a higher power 40 x

What is the High Power Objective Lens
