D. 10-12

3. Resolution and contrast are two critical factors that influence your
ability to see an object. Explain each.
Resolution refers to the distance between two objects at which the
objects still can be seen as separate. Poor or low resolution means two
(or more) objects may appear as one.
Contrast is the difference in light absorbance between two objects.
Poor contrast gives a high background and makes the visualization of
multiple objects difficult. For instance, trying to identify 2 dark colored
objects at night (low light = low contrast) versus the same 2 objects in
the middle of a sunny afternoon (bright light against 2 dark objects =
high contrast).
4. Assuming a constant (non-adjustable) light source power, identify the
part of the microscope you would adjust to limit the amount of light
entering the microscope.
Select all that apply.
A. Objective
B. Condenser
C. Iris diaphragm
D. Eye piece
C. The iris controls the amount of light that passes through the sample
and into the objective lens. Thus, it can be adjusted (opened or closed)
to alter the amount of light.
