When a drinking glass is wet, the layer of water underneath creates less friction between the glass and the counter, making it easier for the glass to slide. This reduced friction allows the glass to move more freely across the surface, especially if there are no grips or stops to prevent it from sliding.

Why is more force needed to slide a large book across the table then to slide a small book across the table?

A large book has more mass, which requires more force to be moved.


Why must the glass slide be free of grease and oil before staining for flangella?

Grease and oil on the glass slide can interfere with the staining process and affect the ability to observe the flagella. They can create a barrier that prevents proper adhesion of the bacterial cells to the slide and disrupt the staining solution from evenly spreading across the slide surface. To ensure accurate results and clear observation of the flagella, it is essential to start with a clean, grease-free glass slide.


What total magnification do 10x and 100x?

How do you prepare a canine ear exudate cytology slide?

Using a sterile cotton swab, gently remove some of the exudate from the dog's ear. Place the exudate on a glass microscope slide and, pressing firmly, smear the exudate across the slide. Use an open flame source (hand-held flick-style cigarette lighters work well) and gently head the underside of the slide to attach the exudate to the slide. Stain the slide with standard Gram stain following the manufacturer's directions. Rinse the slide gentle with tap water and then place on the microscope for viewing.

The primary stain is selective - it will only highlight certain structures or proteins. The counter stain gives color and definition to the rest of the slide so that the relationship between the highlighted structure and the rest of the cell can be determined.
