Question

Ben has been given a tiny letter on a microscope slide that he wants to look at under the microscope. He will need to do things in the correct order if he wants to see anything. Here are four things that Ben needs to do - put them in the correct order. A - look from the side and move the lens down until it nearly touches the microscope slide B - focus the specimen by moving the focusing wheel C - turn on the light so you can see light down the microscope D - place the microscope slide on the stage

Answer 1

D → C → A → B

Place the slide on the stage, turn the light on so you have illumination, look from the side and carefully bring the objective down until it’s nearly touching the slide, then look through the eyepiece and use the focusing wheel to bring the letter into sharp focus.
