6 How does the procedure for using the microscope differ under high power?
For low power you can use the coarse adjustment and fine adjustment for high power you should only use the fine adjustment because on high power, the objective lens is too close to the slide and using the coarse adjustment may scratch the objective lens.
When using the high power objective which focus knob do you use?
The fine adjustment knob is used with the power objective on the microscope. Since the objective is already at the highest objective possible for that microscope, using the coarse adjustment knob would focus to much on the object making the details harder to read. Using the fine adjustment knob, you are able to see the fine details within the object or organism you are studying. The higher the power, the finer the knob and the lower the objective, the coarser the knob and objective.
Why should the course-adjustment knob on a microscope not be used with a high-power objective lens?
The course-adjustment knob moves the stage up and down quickly, and using it with a high-power objective can potentially damage the objective or slide due to a rapid change in focus. It is best to use the fine-adjustment knob when using a high-power lens for precise focusing.
Why is coarse adjustment knob not commonly used when focusing under high power objective?
The coarse adjustment knob moves the objective a lot while the fine adjustment knob moves it just a little, so using the coarse knob under high power can cause the objective to hit the slide and potentially damage the slide or the objective. The fine adjustment knob provides more precise control for focusing under high power, allowing for better clarity and accuracy.
How does the procedure for using the microscope differ under high power as opposed to low power?
use the fine adjustment knob to get a better view of what you are looking at.For low power you can use the coarse adjustment and fine adjustmentfor high power you should only use the fine adjustment because on high power, the objective lens is too close to the slide and using the coarse adjustment may scratch the objective lens.

Why is it important to only use the fine adjustment knob when using the highest power objective lens?
When using high power, the lens is very close to the sample - and so you risk damaging the slide and/or lens if they touch - therefore you only want to move the platform a little bit at a time. It is very similar with an oil immersion - you don't want to damage the lens by allowing the sample to touch it.
Why do you use the fine adjustment focus knob with the highest power objective lens?
Just write the answer in un readable hand writing, so you will not be wrong b-c teacher can't read .
What is the name of the adjustment knob that moves the body tube for focusing with the high-power objective lens?
The adjustment knob that moves the body tube for focusing with the high-power objective lens is called the fine focus adjustment knob. It allows for precise adjustments to bring the specimen into sharp focus at high magnifications.

What happens if you turn the coase adjustment knob while using the low power objective?
Nothing will happen because the coarse adjustment knob controls the position of the stage of the microscope, which is used to focus the specimen. This adjustment is independent of the choice of objective lens.
What are the steps used to focus a microscope on high power?
First focus the microscope on the lowest objective using first the coarse djustment knob and then the fine adjustment knob. Once you have it in focus, move on and do the same for the next highest objective. Continue this process until you reach the highest objective and focus it in the same fashion.
