GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Spring loaded metal clips on the microscope stage are used to hold the slide in place.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stage clip is a spring piece mounted on the microscope stage for fixing the slide or the object to be observed.

Detailed explanation-3: -Place the slide on the Mechanical stage and fasten it with the stage clips. Look at the side of the microscope and turn the Adjustment knob until the lens is very close to, but not touching, the slide. Look through the eyepiece and move the Adjustment knob so that the lens lifts away from the slide.

Detailed explanation-4: -The main function of the cover slip is to keep solid specimens pressed flat, and liquid samples shaped into a flat layer of even thickness. This is necessary because high-resolution microscopes have a very narrow region within which they focus.
