| Making Things Bigger: Using Microscopes | |
|
1. What does 'magnified' mean?
Image:
Mag (binary/octet-stream)
|
Being made bigger. |
| 2. What is a microscope and how does it help scientists? | An instrument used to make very tiny things look bigger. It's useful when scientists need to zoom into very small specimens. |
|
3. What is a specimen?
Image:
Spider (binary/octet-stream)
|
The object being looked at through the microscope. |
|
4. What is a light microscope?
Image:
Lb (binary/octet-stream)
|
A microscope that uses light to reveal the image. |
| 5. What is an image (in scientific terms)? | What is seen through the microscope. |
| 6. What is the difference between a LIGHT microscope and a BINOCULAR microscope? | LIGHT MICROSCOPE: has one ocular lens BINOCULAR MICROSCOPE: has 2 ocular lens |
| 7. What are the different parts of the microscope and what do they do? | |
|
Eyepiece and Objective Lens
Image:
Eye (binary/octet-stream)
|
Magnifies the image |
|
Stage
Image:
Stage (binary/octet-stream)
|
Where the specimen is placed |
|
Mirror/Lamp
Image:
Mirror (binary/octet-stream)
|
Directs light up through the stage and specimen |
|
Handle
Image:
Micro (binary/octet-stream)
|
For carrying the microscope |
|
Fine Focus Knob and Course Focus Knob
Image:
Knobs (binary/octet-stream)
|
Fine Focus: used to focus the image on high power Course Focus: used to focus the image on lower power |
|
8. What is a Stereo Microscope?
Image:
Stereo (binary/octet-stream)
|
A binocular microscope that creates a 3D image |
| 9. What is a dissection? | To cut apart a dead plant or animal to study it |
|
10. What is magnification?
Image:
Magni (binary/octet-stream)
|
The amount by which the image is magnified compared to the real object (specimen) |
| 11. What is a micrometre? | 1000th of a millimeter or one millionth of a metre. Used for measuring very tiny objects as millimetres might be too big. |
| 12. What is an electron microscope and what is it used for? | A microscope that uses beams of electrons to magnify up to 1 million times. Its used for higher magnification. |
| 13. What are the 2 types of electron microscopes and what do they stand for? | SEM: Scanning Electron Microscopes TEM: Transmission Electron Microscopes |
| 14. Comparing TEM and SEM microscopes... |
