Light Microscopy Lab Lab write-up 1 Parveen Rajper Biology 101 Principles of Biology 1 September 29‚ 2012 Introduction: The light microscope helps see the microscopic world that the naked eye cannot see. If there were no microscopes in the world‚ than it would be very difficult to understand the many particles that surround the living world. The purpose of this lab experiment is to become familiar with a microscope. It is hypothesized that it will be difficult

Laboratory Report: Observing Bacteria Purpose: Is to gain knowledge on how to use a microscope and oil immersion lens while observing prepared bacterial slides and also to prepare slides for observable bacteria culture from yogart. Procedure: Exercise 1: Using the Microscope - Viewing Prepared Slides I started out by reading and reviewed the science lab safety reinforcement Agreement and the instruction to oil immersion lens. After setting up my lab station I view the six prepared slides

Laboratory Exercise #2 Pre Lab This lab will teach me how to use a spectrophotometer. The use of the spectrophotometer is to measure the concentration of solute. The solute being measured must be colored and is determined based on the adsorption of light photons on a wavelength. The spectrophotometer uses a beam of light that strikes the diffraction grating that basically forms of prism of light. Then only a specific wavelength of light shines through the spectrophotometer and interacts with

Technology Devices to Overcome the Limitations of Sight and Hearing Humans have sight and hearing limitation. Without any devices‚ our sight and hearing was limited. Most of the limitation of sight can be overcome with the help of certain optical instruments such as magnifying glass‚ microscope‚ binoculars and others. The range of frequency of hearing in human 20 Hz to 20 000 Hz. It was different according to the age of a person. Hearing limitations can be overcome by using devices such as

Definition of the parts of the microscope 1. Stage The horizontal surface upon which the slide is placed is called the stage. The slide is held in place by spring loaded clips and moved around the stage by turning the geared knobs on the stage. Th stage has two perpendicular scales that can be used to record the position of an object on a slide. This is useful if you want to quickly relocate an object. 2. Coarse adjustment The coarse adjustment knob located on the arm of the microscope

The microscope is considered one of the most useful and important scientific inventions known to ’man’. The microscope was invented by Anton van Leeuwenhoek during the seventeenth century. Leeuwenhoek was not a scientist by profession. Initally he made a living selling clothes and buttons‚ but spent his spare time grinding lenses and constructing microscopes of remarkable quality‚ such as the light microscope. The light microscope could magnify cells‚ for instance in plants so you could see a clearer

Microscope lab report Introduction Microscope is a tool used to enlarge images of small objects that are hard to study with bare eyes. The compound light microscope‚ which is going to be used in this lab activity‚ is an instrument with two lenses and various knobs to focus the image. In this lab‚ we will learn about the proper use and handling of the microscope. Objectives: •Demonstrate the appropriate procedures used while using the compound light microscope correctly. •Make and use a wet mount

Daniel Chandler tells us that a sign consists of two parts: the signifier and the signified. The signifier is the form that the sign takes‚ and the signified is a reaction of the signifier. For example: if the signifier is a symbol‚ then the signified could be a concept in the mind pertaining to that symbol. Knowing that there are tens of thousands of different types of signs. Charles Pierce categorized them into 3 modes. The symbolic mode is one where the signifier is not directly related to the

1) The condenser lens concentrates light and makes illumination of image more uniform. 2) The bending of light is also known as refraction. 3) Total magnification = ocular lens magnification x objective lens magnification. 4) The total magnification of an image is 1200x and the magnification of the ocular lens is 10x. What is the magnification of the objective lens? Y = objective lens 1200x = 10x X y 1200x / 10x = y y = 120x Objective lens magnification = 120x 5) The limit of resolution
