BiologyMicroscopyA2/A-levelOCR Created by: will.tudorCreated on: 04-12-16 17:00 Define - Magnification How many times larger the image is than the actual size of the object being viewed. 1 of 9 Does magnifying increase the amount of detail that can be seen? No, the resolution also needs to be increased. 2 of 9 Define - Resolution The ability to see individual objects as separate entities. 3 of 9 How can resolution be limited? Diffraction of light as it passes through samples and lenses. 4 of 9 How can resolution be increased? By using beams of electrons which have a wavelength thousands of times shorter than light. 5 of 9 What is the calculation for magnification? . 6 of 9 How are metres converted into millimetres? Multiplying by 1000. 7 of 9 How are millimetres converted into micrometres? Multiplying by 1000. 8 of 9 How are nanometres converted into micrometres? Dividing by 1000. 9 of 9
