What causes the image to move in a different direction from how you move the slide?
In microscopy, the image moves in a different direction from how the slide is moved because the lens of a microscope inverts the image. The image moves in the opposite direction from the slide.

How does a temporary mount differ from a permanent mount?
Temporary mounts are usually made in aqueous solution, that is, in water or buffer. They aren't meant to be kept for more than a few hours, since tissue degradation can set in soon. Permanent mounts, on the other hand, usually involve resin to seal them onto the slide and make them waterproof. Since it can't come in contact with external elements that can degrade it, permanent mounts last longer, and can be visualized even after months, or years, depending on the mountant used.

What is the difference between wet mount and dry mount?
