Match the cellular components with their correct descriptions by selecting from the drop down list.

- CHROMATIN : Correct Loosely coiled fibers containing protein and DNA within nucleus - MITOCHONDRION : Location of ATP production for cellular energy - RIBOSOME : Small RNA-containing particles for the synthesis of proteins - VESICLE : Membranous sac formed by the pinching off of pieces of plasma membrane - NUCLEOLUS : Dense body of RNA and protein within the nucleus - MICROTUBULE : Part of the cytoskeleton involved in cellular movement - ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM : Composed of membrane-bound canals for tubular transport throughout the cytoplasm - CYTOPLASM : Occupies space between plasma membrane and nucleus - Golgi apparatus (COMPLEX) : Flattened, membranous sacs that modify and package a secretion - LYSOSOME : Membranous sac that contains digestive enzymes - NUCLEAR ENVELOPE : Separates nuclear contents from cytoplasm - NUCLEUS : Spherical organelle that contains chromatin and nucleolus

Match the names of the microscope parts in column A with the descriptions in column B. Click and drag the labels to the right of each description statement.

-Increases or decreases the light intensity: Iris diaphragm -Platform that supports a microscope slide: Stage -Concentrates light onto the specimen: Condenser -Causes stage (or objective lens) to move upward or downward: Adjustment knob (coarse) -After light passes through the specimen, it next enters this lens system: Objective lens system -Holds a microscope slide in position: Stage (slide) clip -Contains a lens at the top of the body tube: Eyepiece (ocular) -Serves as a handle for carrying the microscope: Arm -Part to which the objective lenses are attached: Nosepiece -Circular area seen through the eyepiece: Field of view

Select the correct word(s) in the labels that correctly complete each statement. (Not all labels will be used.)

-When looking through to make observations, the EYEPIECE magnifies the image 10x. -If the specimen is appearing too dark, the light entering the CONDENSER can be adjusted by opening the diaphragm using the iris diaphragm lever. -The COARSE ADJUSTMENT KNOB is used to get scanning and low-power objectives in focus. -The HIGH-POWER objective provides the greatest magnification, while the scanning objective provides the least magnification. -The eyepiece is also called the OCULAR LENS, and it is used to calculate total magnification of an objective lens. -Scanning and then LOW-POWER objectives are used to get a specimen in focus before using high-power. -If the slide is moving as you try to center it in the field of view, check that you have secured the slide to the stage using the STAGE CLIPS. -The flat surface that supports the microscope is the base, and it, along with the ARM requires one hand on each part to help carry the microscope. -When observing the spinal cord in a prepared slide, the SCANNING magnification would be used to see the largest amount of the specimen in the field of view.
