1.Eyepiece or ocular- upper optical component that further magnifies the primary images and bring the right rays into focus.
2. Draw tube- it is the cylindrical structure which is used to support the eyepiece.
3. Body tube- connects the ocular to the objective lenses.
4. Coarse Adjustment Knob- It moves the tube up and down to magnify the
specimen.
5. Fine Adjustment Knob- It adjusts the focus slightly, to make the image clear.
6. Arm- basic frame to which the base, body and stage are attached and acts as a
connector between the base and the head of the microscope.
7. Stage- Table of the microscope where the glass slide is placed and helps in
supporting the specimen and helps you to keep the specimen on the
correct location.
8.Stage Clip- The stage clip hold the the specimen slide firmly on the stage and is
needed if the microscope is tilted.
9. Glass Slide- is the place where specimen is place to view in the microscope.
10. Inclination Joint- It allows one to tilt the upper part of the microscope so that
you can view the specimen while seated.
11.Base- it helps in supporting the microscope and contains the illuminator.
12.Diaphragm- it controls the amount of light that passes through the stage and,
consequently, through the specimen.
13.Dust Shield- It protects the objectives from dust.
14.Revolving Nosepiece- This is the part that holds two or more objective lenses
and can be rotated to easily change power.
15.Objectives- it gathers light from the sample or object under study.
16.Mirror- is used to focus light up through the hole in the microscope's stage,
or slide platform. The slides will contain a thin slice of material
through which the light can shine, to reveal the internal structure of
the sample.
17.Mirror Rack- holds the mirror in place.
definition of part of typical microscope
What can you infer about these two parts of a microscope? [arm and base]
Stereomicroscope, Compound Microscope, Phase-contrast microscope, electron microscope, Scanning-electron microscope, Transmission electron microscope, Confocal-scanning microscope. THESE ARE JUST SOME. :)
There is a compound light microscope, an scannignn electron microscope, and transmission electron microscope.
There are several type of microscopes, mainly, the one that we use in lab is a simple light microscope or a compound microscope. Then we have the phase contrast microscope, fluorescent microscope, electron microscope (transmission electron microscope [TEM] and scanning electron microscope [SEM]), confocal microscope and even dissection microscope the one which we use during dissections.
There are 17 parts of a microscopes.
parts of microscope and their function
The compound microscope has three main parts, The three main parts of a microscope includes the illuminating parts, the magnifying parts, and the mechanical parts.
Microscope parts can be purchased online at sites such as Microscope World, Amazon, and eBay. One can also find a wide selection of microscope parts online at The Microscope Depot.
the classification of the parts of the microscope are . - illuminating parts - magnifying parts - supporting parts - mechanical parts that's it. :)
magnifying parts are the components that enlarge the optical image through the microscope. mechanical parts are what adjusts the zoom of the microscope. together these parts create the whole microscope.
microscope is tae
The 3 major parts of microscope are illuminating, magnifying & mechanical .
The objective and the diaphragm are the parts that increase magnification on a microscope.
magnifying
it is one of the parts of a compound microscope
With an optical microscope, the lenses
