Why must the specimen be centered before switching from low power to high power?

Because high power takes up a much smaller area, and you may not be able to find the specimen if it's off to one side. C:

∙ 6y agoBecause the field of view in high power is smaller than on low power and if the specimen is not in the center it will most likely be out of the field of view when the power is switched.

What two things must be true before the microscope can be switched to high power to zoom in on a specimen?

Why the specimen must be centered in the field of view on low-power before going on to high-power?
Because it is too hard to find a specimen on high power. Easier to find them and focus them on low power and then increase the magnification and fine-tune the focus to get a better, closer look.
Why should you focus on low power before switching to high power?
You should first focus the slide on low power before you switch it to high power because it is easier to find the specimen on the slide. When you switch to a higher power, the field of view gets zoomed in.
Which of these is not true when changing magnification form low power to high power?
The specimen should be in clear focus
When locating specimen which magnification is used?
When locating a specimen,the magnification use is low objective lens of 10*.
Why must the specimen be centered before switching to high power on a microscope?

Why is it important that the object is centered in the field of view before switching to a higher power objective?
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT THAT THE IMAGE IS CENTERED IN THE FIELD OF VIEW BEFORE SWITCHING TO A HIGHER POWER
What does low power objective do?
The low power objective lens is usually a 10x lens and it is used to orient the specimen and get it focused before switching to a higher power lens.
What does low power objective len do?
The low power objective lens is usually a 10x lens and it is used to orient the specimen and get it focused before switching to a higher power lens.
After switching from low power to high power more or less of thr specimen will be visable?

Why the specimen be centered in field of view on low power before going to high power?

The specimen must be centered in the field of view on low power before going to high power?
Because when looking at it from far, then you can see more of the specimen, However, when you're looking at it closer up in a high power mode, then you will see less of the object, but much closer.
Why is it important to focus specimens under the Low Power Objectve before observing it under the High Power Objective?
It allows you to center the specimen, and if it is set up correctly, then when you switch objectives it should still be there and only need fine focusing. It also reduces the chance of crushing the specimen and/or breaking the slide or the lens as the LPO is further away from the slide than the HPO.

What does it mean for a microscope to be parcentered?
When a microscope is parcentered, the specimens will appear centered in the field of view at every magnification. So if a field of a slide is centered at the lowest power, even though the field diameter shrinks at each higher magnification, the desired part of the specimen will remain in the center of the viewing field.
