GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Objective lenses are used to magnify what you are looking at. They range from low to high power and are found on the nosepiece. The part of the microscope that supports the slide that is being viewed. These are used to hold a slide in place on the stage.

Detailed explanation-2: -OBJECTIVE LENSES These are found on the nosepiece and range from low to high power. STAGE CLIPS These are used to hold a slide in place on the stage. LIGHT SOURCE Projects light upwards through the diaphragm to allow you to see the specimen.

Detailed explanation-3: -Revolving Nosepiece or Turret: This is the part that holds two or more objective lenses and can be rotated to easily change power.

Detailed explanation-4: -The lenses that are attached to the nosepiece of a compound light microscope are referred to as the objective lens. A compound light microscope will have several (usually four) pieces of objective lenses with different magnification powers. The common magnification powers are 4x, 10x, 40x, and 100x.

Detailed explanation-5: -Once in focus on low power, center the object of interest by moving the slide. Rotate the objective to the medium power and adjust the fine focus only. If needed, rotate the objective to the high power and adjust fine focus only.
