A cover slip is a very thin piece of glass used to cover a sample on a microscope slide. It stops the sample from getting on to the objective lens of the microscope.
To prevent air bubbles from forming under a coverslip when mounting a slide, make sure to apply the mounting medium evenly and carefully lower the coverslip onto the specimen at a slight angle to allow air to escape. Additionally, you can gently press down on the coverslip to help any remaining air bubbles escape before sealing the edges.

Coverslip keeps the sample uniform and does not let it spill and have many irregularities.
AnswerThe previous answers made no sense so I just erased them. It's called the cover slip.
A coverslip is used in microscopy to flatten and protect the specimen being observed on a microscope slide. It helps to ensure the specimen is in focus and prevents it from drying out or getting damaged during observation. The coverslip also helps to keep the objective lens clean.
coverslip use to see the tiny objects.
I would prefer a glass coverslip for this specimen, please.
A coverslip is used for expirements so you dony have to make a mess on the tables
A coverslip goes on top of a slide to trap the matter being viewed.

You can add small amounts of water without removing the coverslip. To do this, place a single drop of water on one end of the coverslip and draw the water under the coverslip by placing a piece of paper towel on the opposite end of the coverslip. :D

Coverslip
A coverslip in Biology is a small rectangle of glass that is mounted on a slide to be viewed under a microscope. The coverslip protects the specimen, keep it in place and/or make it flat.
To prevent air bubbles from forming under a coverslip when mounting a slide, make sure to apply the mounting medium evenly and carefully lower the coverslip onto the specimen at a slight angle to allow air to escape. Additionally, you can gently press down on the coverslip to help any remaining air bubbles escape before sealing the edges.
To lower a coverslip onto a mounted slide, hold the coverslip at a slight angle above the specimen then gently lower it to let the mounting medium spread evenly and minimize air bubbles. Avoid pressing down too hard to prevent squashing the specimen or damaging the slide.
