  1. Explain what each of the following does: kimwipes immersion oil diaphragm stage adjustment knob Go to the “EXPLORE” tab to view slides. You will need to use the coarse and fine focus and adjust the light to get clear views of the following. The slide can also be moved within the viewing field.

Sample Slides - Letter E

  1. Include a screenshot of the letter “e” at 10x. To take a screenshot, use the print screen on your keyboard or use your phone to capture the screen. Insert the image in the space below. Your image should clearly show that you viewed the “e” and focused it.
  2. What did you need to do before viewing the slide at 100x?
  3. A common mistake for beginners is thinking that the “e” just disappears at the high magnification. How would you explain to a younger student what happened to the e as you increase the magnification?
  1. At 100x, you will see a cell that is larger and has a dark shape in it. This cell doesn’t look like the others because it is a white blood cell and it functions to protect your body against microbes. Red blood cells do not have a nucleus. White blood cell count is used as a diagnostic tool to determine if someone is sick. If you were fighting an infection, would you expect to have more or less WBC’s? Why?

Synthesis and Discussion

  1. Compare blood cells to plant cells, include details about color, general shape, and size. Write this as a complete sentence or paragraph.
  2. Explore bacteria slides. You don’t need to screenshot them. Compare the bacteria slides to the blood cells and include details about their color, general shape, and size. Write this as a complete sentence or paragraph.
