Let’s go through each part of the microscope and match it to its correct function.
1.
Eyepiece – This is what you look through. It contains the ocular lens. → Matches
b
2.
Revolving Nosepiece – This holds the objective lenses and lets you rotate them to change magnification. → Matches
n
3.
Scanning Power – This is the lowest power objective lens, usually 4x. → Matches
f
4.
Low Power Lens – Usually 10x magnification. → Matches
j
5.
High Power Lens – Usually 40x magnification. → Matches
d
6.
Stage Clips – These hold the slide in place on the stage. → Matches
m
7.
Stage – The flat platform where you put the slide. → Matches
e
8.
Light Source/Lamp – Provides light that goes up through the specimen. → Matches
g
9.
Arm – You grip this when carrying the microscope. → Matches
a
10.
Coarse Adjustment – Big knob for moving stage up/down to get initial focus. → Matches
k
11.
Fine Adjustment – Small knob for fine-tuning focus, especially at high power. → Matches
h
12.
Diaphragm – Controls how much light passes through the specimen. → Matches
i
13.
Base – Bottom part that supports the whole microscope. → Matches
l
14.
Body Tube – Connects the eyepiece to the nosepiece. → Matches
c
Now let’s write the matches clearly:
1 → b
2 → n
3 → f
4 → j
5 → d
6 → m
7 → e
8 → g
9 → a
10 → k
11 → h
12 → i
13 → l
14 → c
Final Answer:
1-b, 2-n, 3-f, 4-j, 5-d, 6-m, 7-e, 8-g, 9-a, 10-k, 11-h, 12-i, 13-l, 14-c
