Light Microscope Training Practical
Welcome to the electronic science frontier classroom of the 21st century. This instrument will test your knowledge of component parts of a compound light microscope. Microscopes are tools that extend human vision by making enlarged images of objects. When a "fill-in" type question presents itself in this test, be sure to read any directions. Please enter your answer(s) using all lower case letters. I wish you good luck in your learning of the compound light microscope.
