Lab: Using a Compound Microscope

Question 29 • AL-Biology A

You are in your laboratory studying a tumor. You want to see as many details about the structure of the tissue and its cells as possible to try to determine what caused the tumor’s development. You have the best microscope available. Check the option below that would allow you to see the greatest amount of detail

Answer
A
Use a microscope with many objectives.
B
Start by focusing the cells using low power.
C
Focus on the cells using high power.
D
Find previously released photos of the cells.

Explanation

High power provides greater magnification, allowing you to see finer details of the cells and tissue. A microscope having many objectives does not necessarily mean you are using its highest magnification, and focusing at low power shows less detail. Previously released photos may not show the specific tumor you are studying.
