The coarse adjustment knobs are used to to lower them dramatic amounts.

And the fine adjustment knobs are used to lower them very small amounts, in order to focus in better on what you want.

What are the parts of microscope that are magniying parts?

The parts of a microscope that magnify the image include the objective lenses and ocular lens (eyepiece). The objective lenses are located at the lower end of the microscope and provide varying levels of magnification, while the ocular lens is at the top of the microscope and further magnifies the image produced by the objective lens.


What knobs are used for focusing the lenses on a microscope?

Coarse adjustment knob is used for initial rough focusing by moving the lenses further or closer to the specimen. Fine adjustment knob is used for fine-tuning the focus for sharper clarity by making small adjustments to the position of the lenses.


What are the differences between a simple microscope and a compound microscope?

A simple microscope has only one lens and is used for magnifying small objects, while a compound microscope has multiple lenses and is used for magnifying very small objects with higher magnification and resolution.


Type of microscope that uses glass lenses to focus light rays?

A light microscope, also known as an optical microscope, is the type of microscope that uses glass lenses to focus light rays and produce magnified images of specimens. It is commonly used in biology and other sciences for viewing cells, tissues, and small organisms.


What connects the eye piece to the objective lenses on a microscope?

The body tube connects the eyepiece to the objective lenses on a microscope. It holds the lenses in alignment and ensures that light passing through the objective lenses reaches the eyepiece for viewing.

What is the similarities of compound microscope to dissecting microscope?

Both the compound microscope and dissecting microscope use lenses to magnify objects. They both have adjustable focus and are used for viewing specimens in detail, but the compound microscope is more powerful and used for viewing smaller specimens at a cellular level, while the dissecting microscope is used for larger specimens at a lower magnification.


What are used to magnify images in a light microscope?

Lenses are used to magnify images in a light microscope. These lenses include the objective lens and the eyepiece lens. By adjusting the focus of these lenses, the magnification of the specimen can be increased for detailed observation.

Microscope made up of two or more lenses?

Yes, two lenses can make a simple microscope. More are usually used. A magnifying glass - one lens - is the simplest microscope.


What is a compound microscope used for in lab equipment?

A compound microscope, like the common optical microscope is used to study objects too small to see with the naked eye. The difference between a common optical microscope, and a compound microscope is the number of objective lenses. A compound microscope will contain several lenses. This reduces distortion, and gives one multiple lenses with which to adjust magnification.


Where are the ocular lenses on a microscope?

The ocular lenses on a microscope are located at the top of the microscope's eyepiece tube. They are the lenses that you look through to view the magnified specimen on the microscope slide.
