The Base.
What is the bottom of a Microscope Called?
|
By the Arm and the Base.
How do you carry a Microscope?

The Nucleus is the control center of the cell.
What is the control center of the cell?
|
2 MAJOR parts.
How many MAJOR parts is a cell divided up into?
|
They are hollow structures made of proteins known as tubulins.
What are Microtubules?
|
|
Eyepiece/Ocular Lens and Objective Lenses
What are the 2 lenses that a microscope uses?
|
YOU COULD BREAK THE SLIDE!!!
Why should we not use the Course Adjustment Knob on the HIGH POWER Lenses?
|
Responsible for breaking down lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins into smaller molecules that can be used by the cell
What are Lysosomes responsible for?
|
Nucleus and Cytoplasm.
What are the 2 MAJOR parts that a cell is divided into?
|
Cilia and flagella
What are the 2 things that bundles of Microtubules form?
|
|
Changes the objective lens choices.
What does the nosepiece do?
|
Lens Paper.
What should we clean the lens with?
|
Protein Filaments
What are Cytoskeletons a network of?
|
Cytoplasm
What is the portion of the cell that is outside of the Nucleus called?
|
Protein actin
What are Microfilaments made of?
|
|
The Course Adjustment knob moves the Stage Up and down.
The Fine Adjustment knob fine tunes the focus.
What do the Course/Fine Adjustment knobs do?
|
A Slide.
What should we put a specimen in before putting it on the Stage?
|
Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and other materials then stores or sends them where needed.
What does the Golgi Body do?
|
Organelles
What are the cell structures that act like specialized organs called?
|
Yes.
Are Microtubules important in cell division?
|
|
The Stage holds the slide and has a hole to let the light pass through the specimen. The Stage Clips hold down a slide in place on the stage for viewing.
What do the Stage/Stage Clips Do?
|
No.
Should we touch the lenses with our fingers or other objects?
|
Mitochondria
What is the powerhouse of a cell called?
|
Yes
Does understanding each part help understand the cell as a WHOLE? HOW?
|
Yes
Are Microfilaments narrower than Microtubules.
