Resource summary

Question 1

Question
What is the function of the Nucleus?
Answer
  • Control of the cell
  • To manufacture ATP
  • To modify amino acid chains
  • To induce enzyme activity

Question 2

Question
What is meant by the term: Magnification?
Answer
  • How much bigger an image appears when compared with the original object.
  • The ability to distinguish between 2 points clearly.
  • The magnifying power of the objective lens.
  • How much smaller an image appears when compared to the original object

Question 3

Question
What is meant by the term: Resolution?
Answer
  • How much bigger an image appears when compared with the original object.
  • The magnifying power of the objective lens.
  • The ability to distinguish between 2 points clearly.
  • How much smaller an image appears when compared with the original object

Question 4

Question
What is the equation for calculating Magnification?
Answer
  • Total magnification = Image size / Magnification.
  • Total magnification = Magnifying power of the objective lens x eyepiece lens.
  • Total magnification = Image size x Magnification.
  • There is no calculation.
