Learn about the parts and functions of a light microscope, including the rheostat that controls the lamp intensity. Find out how light microscopes reveal the structures of living and non-living samples.
10 wrz 2021 · Learn how to use and care for a compound light microscope, prepare wet mount slides, and view specimens. The web page explains the parts and functions of a microscope, and how to adjust the light intensity with a rheostat.
26 maj 2021 · Review the principles of light microscopy and identify the major parts of the microscope. Learn how to use the microscope to view slides of several different cell types, including the use of the oil immersion lens to view bacterial cells.
In some cases, brightness can also be adjusted using the rheostat, a dimmer switch that controls the intensity of the illuminator. A brightfield microscope creates an image by directing light from the illuminator at the specimen; this light is differentially transmitted, absorbed, reflected, or refracted by different structures.

A rheostat is a variable resistor used to control current by adjusting resistance without interrupting the flow of electricity. In microscopy, it adjusts the intensity of the light source to enhance image clarity.
