What is the part of the microscope which you put under the slide?
The part of the microscope that you put under the slide is called the objective lens. This lens is responsible for magnifying the specimen on the slide for viewing.
Why should you never allow an objective lens to touch the slide?
Allowing the objective lens to touch the slide can damage both the lens and the slide, affecting the quality of the image seen under the microscope. It can also cause the slide to break or scratch, risking contamination and potential injury to the user.
Why can't the objective lenses touch the slide?
The objective lenses should not touch the slide because doing so can lead to scratches on the lens or slide, affecting the quality of the image. Additionally, touching the slide with the objective lens can potentially damage the specimen being viewed. Maintaining a small distance between the lens and the slide ensures proper focus and clarity in the image.
Why should an objective lens never touch the slide?
An objective lens should never touch the slide because it can damage both the lens and the specimen. It can also result in potential contamination and distortion of the image being viewed under the microscope. Keeping a small distance between the lens and the slide allows for proper focusing and prevents scratching or smudging.
Which lens should you use to first look at a slide on a microscope?
You should start with the lowest magnification lens, typically the scanning lens (4x or 5x), to locate and center the specimen on the slide. This allows you to get a general overview of the slide before increasing the magnification with higher-power objectives.
Why should you look to the slide before you lower the objective of your microscope?
so the objective lens will not touch the slide.

What is the lens closest to the slide on a microscope called?
The objective lens

What is the upper lens in a microscope called?
The upper lens in a microscope is called the eyepiece or ocular lens. It is the lens through which the viewer looks to observe the magnified specimen on the microscope slide.
When you change from medium to high power what part of the microscope are you not suppose to touch?
When changing from medium to high power on a microscope, you should not touch the coarse focus knob. This knob is used to adjust the focus at lower magnifications and can cause the objective lens to crash into the slide if used at high power, potentially damaging the slide or the lens.
Why should an objective lens never touch the slide?
An objective lens should never touch the slide because it can damage both the lens and the specimen. It can also result in potential contamination and distortion of the image being viewed under the microscope. Keeping a small distance between the lens and the slide allows for proper focusing and prevents scratching or smudging.
Which lens on a microscope should you use first to look at a slide?
The lens that you should use to first look at a slide on a microscope is a low power lens then move on to a higher power for more clarity.
What does the lens do in a microscope?
The objective lens in a microscope helps to magnify the object being viewed on the slide. The objective lens can be rotated to change the magnification of the lens and yield a different view.
What is the name of the part which holds the slide in place on a microscope?
The part that holds the slide in place on a microscope is called the stage. The stage is where you place your sample slide for viewing under the lens of the microscope.
What is the flat surface of a microscope that holds the slide for viewing called?
The flat surface of a microscope that holds the slide for viewing is called the stage. It is where the specimen slide is placed for examination under the microscope's lens.
