29.

The __________________ lens of the microscope would show you the MOST zoomed-in image of the specimen.

d)

scanning

30.

usually has 4x magnifications and can be identified by a red strip band around its perimeter of the lens it is designed for getting your bearings right before moving into low power lens

a)

high power lens

b)

scanning lens

c)

low power lens

d)

oil immersion lens

31.

usually has 10x or 20 x magnifications and can be identified by a yellow strip band around its perimeter of the lens .the objective is useful for viewing prepared specimens on slides, it will achieve somewhere around 100 to 200x for a 10x 20 x eyepiece respectively .the sort magnification is great in viewing small specimens like fly eggs, onion skin brine shrimps hair

a)

low power lens

b)

high pawer lens

c)

oil immersion lens

d)

scanning lens

32.

it is ideal for observing the small details within a specimen sample. The total magnification for this lens is equal to 400x magnification (10x eyepiece lens x the 40x objective equals 400).identifiable by a blue strip,it is used in looking at small details like germs moulids cell

a)

low power lens

b)

oil immersion lens

c)

scanning lens

d)

high power lens

33.

This objective lens will achieve the greatest magnification and has a total magnification of 1000x (10x eyepiece lens x the 100x objective equals 1000). However, since the refractive index of air and the glass slide are slightly different, a special oil must be used to help fill the gap between the two. Without a drop of oil, the objective lens will not work properly and you will not achieve the desired magnification and resolution.it is identifiable with a white strip on its lens

a)

high power lens

b)

low power lens

c)

oil immersion

d)

scanning lens
