Q

List the three steps to focus a microscope properly.

A
  1. Put the slide on the stage and hold it in place with the stage clips.
  2. Look at the slide on low power through the objective lens and use the coarse adjustment knob to bring the stage as close as possible.
  3. Use the fine adjustment knob to focus it so you can see it clearly.

A

Vacuoles are storge sacs which stores enzymes, food, water, and waste.

17
Q

What are ribosomes?

A

Ribosomes create proteins.

18
Q

What are golgi bodies?

A

Golgi bodies are tube like structures which creates lysosomes and packages proteins.

19
Q

What is the cell theory?

A
  1. All living things are made of cells
  2. The cell is the basic structural unit for all living things
  3. The cell is the basic functional unit for all living things
  4. Cells are made from pre-existing cells
20
Q

What are the six characteristics of all living things?

A
  1. Living things are made of basic units called cells
  2. Living things have highly organized structures
  3. Living things require food for energy
  4. Living things respond to their environment
  5. Living things grow and reproduce
  6. Living things exhibit movrment
21
Q

What is field of view?

A

Field of view is how you see things through a microscope. The amount of specimen you see decreases as you magnify the slide. The e looked upside down, backwards and larger through the microscope.

22
Q

Difine osmosis.

A

Osmosis is a kind of diffusion that involves the movement of water through a selectively preamble membrane.

23
Q

Define diffusion

A

Diffusion is the movement of gas or liquid particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

24
Q

What is hypertonic?

A

A cell will shrink when put in a hypertonic solution

25
Q

What is hypotonic?

A

When a cell is put in a hypotonic solution it will swell.

26
Q

What is isotonic?

A

When a cell is put into an isotonic solution nothing will happen.

27
Q

What is cancer?

A

Cancer is a disease when some of the cells divide much faster than usual and it spreads to other parts of the body. It is when mitosis goes wild.
