2. June 9, 20162 Cell Theory & The Microscope

3. Cell Theory 1.All living things are composed of one or more cells.  Matthias Schleidan (1837)  all plants are made of cells  Theodor Schwann(1839)  all animals are made of cells

4. Cell Theory 2.Cells are the basic structural and functional units of life. – nothing smaller than a cell is considered to be alive – i.e. unicellular organisms are the smallest living things  bacteria  smallest living cells  protozoa  single-celled organisms

5. Cell Theory 3. All cells arise from the division of other cells

7. Zacharias Janssen and his father Hans of Holland in the 1590’s are credited with creating the first microscope Anthony van Leeuwenhoek, know as the “father” of the microscope and Robert Hooke made improvements by working on the lenses June 9, 20167 History Anthony van Leeuwenhoek 1632-1723 Robert Hooke 1635-1703 Zacharias Jansen 1588-1631

25. Field of view: diameter of the circle you see June 9, 201625 What do you see? 4mm approximately in low power

26. Compound Light Microscope magnification: - the ability of lenses to enlarge the image of a specimen resolution: - the amount of detail seen when viewing a specimen poor resolution = blurred image good resolution = clear, sharp image

27. Total Magnification 40x objective high power 10x objective medium power 4x objective low power June 9, 201627 total magnification = ocular lens x objective lens = 10 x objective total magnification: = 10 x 4 = 40X = 10 x 10 = 100X = 10 x 40 = 400X

28. Steps 1.Click nosepiece to the lowest power objective (4X) 2.Place the slide on the stage 3.Look into the eyepiece 4.Use the coarse adjustment knob to focus 5.Use stage clips only after having found & centered your slide around an area you want to examine 6.Turn the nosepiece to the higher power objective 7.Do NOT use the coarse focusing knob 8.Use the fine focus knob to sharpen the image June 9, 201628 Using the Microscope

29. Always carry with 2 hands: one on the arm and the other on the base Don’t bang it into other objects Make sure base is on a flat surface (only on black benches) Only use lens paper for cleaning Do not force knobs Carefully wrap cord around microscope June 9, 201629 Microscope Care

30. Homework Read page 7 – 14 Do page 14 # 2 – 4 Do page 15 # 1

31. Microscope Activity (Part 1) 1.Obtain a microscope. 2.Working in pairs, identify all of the parts of the microscope.

32. Microscope Activity (Part 2) 2.Do Resolution Activity Materials: compound light microscope slide & cover slip coloured picture from a magazine scissors

33. Microscope Activity (Part 2) 2.Resolution Activity a) Cut a small (1 cm x 1 cm) section of a colour image from a magazine. Include parts of the picture containing red, green, or blue colour. b) Place the section in the centre of a microscope slide and cover with a drop of water and a cover slip. c) Examine the image with a microscope under low, medium and high power. i) Describe the picture’s qualities (e.g. graininess, etc.) when observed with unaided eyes. ii) Describe the magnified images of the picture when examined under low, medium and high power. How do the qualities of the magnified images compare with the image viewed with unaided eyes. iii) Comment on the resolving abilities of your microscope.

34. Microscope Activity (Part 3) 3. Letter “e” Activity a) Cut out a lower case “e” from a magazine or news paper. b) Place the letter “e” in the centre of a microscope slide and cover with a drop of water and a cover slip. c) Center the wet-mount of the letter “e” on the stage with the “e” in its normal upright position. Bring the letter in to focus under low power. d) Note the position of the letter “e” on the slide (using your eyes only) and as seen through the eyepiece of the microscope. e) Draw the letter “e” as seen with your unaided eye and as seen through the microscope. Don’t forget to record the total magnification. f) While looking through the microscope, move the slide to the left, notice which way the letter “e” moved. Now move the slide to the right. Notice which way the letter “e” moved. Do the same with moving the slide away and towards you. g) Turn the medium power objective into position and bring the letter “e” into focus. Draw the letter as seen through the microscope. Don’t forget to record the total magnification. h) Looking at the slide, rotate the high power objective into position. Bring it into focus using the fine adjustment knob ONLY. Draw the letter “e” as it appears in the microscope and record the magnification.
