What is the function of the.... arm?
|
Supports the body tube.
|
|
base?
|
The bottom of the microscope that supports the microscope.
|
|
light source?
|
Projects light through the diapragm opening in the stage, and the specimen.
|
|
eye piece?
|
Contains the ocular lense that you look through to view an object placed on the stage. 10x.
|
|
body tube?
|
It allows light to pass upward and through the eye piece.
|
|
stage?
|
Supports the slide being viewed.
|
|
stage clips?
|
Holds the slide in place.
|
|
Diaphragm?
|
Located under the stage and controls the amount of late entering through the stage.
|
|
nosepiece?
|
Holds objective lenses and can change the magnification.
|
|
objective lenses?
|
they magnify the image of the specimen.
|
|
coarse adjustment?
|
Moves the body tube up and down to bring the objective lenses into focus. larger than fine adjustment.
|
|
fine adjustment?
|
Moves the body tube up and down very slightly for focusing.
|
|
inclination joint?
|
used to adjust thr angle of the microscope. located between the arm and the base. ***NOT ALL MICROSCOPES HAVE THIS***
|
|
what is the function of...*
*the cell wall? |
gives support and protects the cell
|
|
*the cell membrane
|
allows material in and out of the cell
|
|
*cytoplasm
|
holds organelles in place and keeps the cell membrane from collapsing
|
|
*nucleus
|
controls what the cell does(the brain)
|
|
*the nuclear membrane
|
allows material in and out of the nucleus
|
|
*nucleolus
|
where a cell begins to make its ribosomes
|
|
*chromosomes
|
determines the cell's traits
|
|
*ribosomes
|
the place where protiens are made
|
|
*rough and smooth E.R.
|
transports substances through the cell
|
|
*mitochondrian
|
main power source/ breaks down sugar(food) to produce energy
|
|
*chloroplast
|
captures sunlight/energy and uses it to produce food(only in plants and where photosynthesis takes place)
|
|
*golgi complex/body
|
packages & distributes protein/materials
|
|
*lysosome
|
get rid of waste, protect the cell from invaders, and destroy warnout or damaged organelles(in animal cells, rarely in plants)
|
|
*vesicle/vacuole
|
stores water and other materials
|
|
What is...#
#metabolism? |
sum total of ALL chemical reactions that occur in the cell
|
|
#osmosis?
|
special form of diffusion/ movement of water from high to low concentration WATER ONLY
|
|
#passive transport
|
movement of molecules in and out of the cell through the cell membrane not using energy(with current)
|
|
#active transport
|
movement of molecules through the cell membrane using energy (LOW to HIGH)
|
|
#endocytosis
|
cell membrane surrounds and encloses a particle bringing it into the cell through the cell membrane
|
|
#cellular respiration
|
(aerobic respiration) the process where the cell releases stored energy into food
oxygen+glucose->water+ATP+carbon dioxide |
|
#photosynthesis?
|
food making process of green plants/ algae/certain bacteria
occurs in the chloroplast using green pigment chlorophyll CARBON DIOXIDE+WATER+LIGHT ENERGY-> GLUCOSE+OXYGEN |
|
#fermentation?
|
(ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION) breaksdown food to release energy
|
|
concave lens(what is)
|
a lens that curves in like a bowl.
|
|
convex lens(what is?)
|
a lens that is in the shape of a sphere.
