1. Stipulative definition of microscope.
2. Stipulative definition of bubonic plague.
Write the term that the phrase describes. 1. Large knob that moves the stage or objective lens a great distance. Used with scanning or low-power objective lenses only. 2. Flat platform beneath the objective lens on which the microscope slide is placed. 3. Removable lenses that you look through to observe the microscope slide. 4. Small knob that moves the stage or objective lens a very small distance and is used for precision focusing. 5. Extends from the arm and contains the ocular lenses and rotating nosepiece. 6. Lens that condenses light through the specimen and is located below the stage. 7. Light from specimen passes through these lenses first. These lenses are located in the rotating nosepiece. 8. Wide bottom part that supports the microscope. 9. Regulates the amount of light passing through the condenser. 10. Vertical portion that connects the base to the head.
