Why is it not safe to use any kind of paper in cleaning the lens of the microscope?

Paper is manufactured from pulp which is made from trees. IE wood. The use of any paper product to clean a delicate lens can cause minute scratches on the lens which can mar the surface and interfere with the visual display when viewing something on the slide. When looking through the microscope, it is hard to determine if what you're seeing is actually on the slide or a scratch on the lens.


What does Slr means?

SLR stands for single lens reflex. This is the type of camera in which the image goes into the lens and is reflected by a mirror into your eye at the viewfinder. You therefore see exactly what the lens is seeing. This type of camera also usually allows you to remove the lens and replace it with another, such as a wide-angle lens by a telephoto, etc. An SLR now can either be a film camera or a digital camera.

Which objective should be use first in viewing an object?

I assume this is a question about viewing an object through a compound microscope. Always use the shortest objective lens (that is the one with the lowest magnification) first. Focus the lens and then when you want more detail or a closer view, you can simply rotate the lens turret to a longer lens and it should be nearly in focus. Use the fine focus feature to sharpen the picture. If an object is viewed in this way, the danger of scratching the high power objective by ramming it into the slide is lessened.
