microscope and kingdom

base

-foundation of the microscope

head

- holds the optical part

ocular lens

- where you look throuh

diopter adjustment

-used to adjust magnification

nose piece

-holds the objective lenses

objective lenses

-holds the lenses used to see

red lens

scanning objective 4x (total 40x)

yellow lens

low power objective 10x (total: 100x)

blue lens

high power objective 40x (total 400x)

white lens

oil objective 100x (total: 1000x)

arm

connects base to head

stage

where specimen is placed for viewing

stage clip

fastens the specimen to the stage

aperature

hole where the light passes through

diaphram

under the stage, controls the amount of light that enters

course adjustment knob

allows quick adjustment of the specimen up and down

fine adjustment knob

allows quick focus adjustment

illuminator

where light bounces

- animals

- fungi

- protista

- prokaryotic (bacteria)

- plants

5 kingdoms

plastids

- kingdom plantae

- double membrane

- manufacturing and storing food

- proteins: pigments that can capture light

Chloroplasts

--which contain the green pigment chlorophyll and are responsible for photosynthesis

– found most commonly in unripe fruits

hyphae

- kingdom fungi

- thin white filaments that extends forming a mycelium that indicates growth

chromoplasts

which contain the orange pigment carotenoid and are responsible for the synthesis and storage of light

Leucoplasts

- a type of colorless plastid found in plant cells.

Septate

-kingdom fungi

-which have a septa or cell walls as divisions among cells

Coenocytic

-kingdom fungi

-which do not have septum and are instead one long continuous cell without divisions

protozoans

-most abundant in kingdom protista

-have animal-like structure

ciliophora

-group of protozoans

- contains cilia

sporazoa

-group of protozoans

- no structure for locomotion

- cannot move

sarcodina

- Group of protozoans

- with pseudopodia

- no definite shape

sarcomastigophora

- Group of protozoans

- contains flagella

eubacteria

- complex and unicellular organisms that can be heterotrophs and autotrophs

-grouped based on shape

- cocci (sphere)

- bacilli (rod)

- spirilla (spirals)

3 eubacteria based on shape

archaebacteria

bacteria that live in extreme environments

halophiles

can live in very salty environments

thermophiles

can live in an extremely hot evironment

acidophiles

- those who prefer acidic environments

methanophiles

- those that can produce methane as a waste product
