What is the field of view in microscopy?
What is the field of view in microscopy?
- The area visible through the objective lens
- The area visible through the condenser lens
- The entire area visible through a microscope (correct)
- The area visible through the eyepiece lens
How does the diameter of the field of view change with magnification?
How does the diameter of the field of view change with magnification?
- It decreases with increasing magnification (correct)
- It remains constant regardless of magnification
- It increases with increasing magnification
- It is unrelated to magnification
What is the relationship between the diameter of field and the objective lens magnification at low power?
What is the relationship between the diameter of field and the objective lens magnification at low power?
- Diameter of Field / Objective lens magnification = 5mm (correct)
- Diameter of Field + Objective lens magnification = 5mm
- Diameter of Field * Objective lens magnification = 5mm
- Diameter of Field - Objective lens magnification = 5mm

Study Notes
Field of View in Microscopy
- The field of view is the circular area that can be seen through the microscope's eyepiece lens.
- The diameter of the field of view decreases as the magnification increases.
- At low power, the diameter of the field is directly proportional to the objective lens magnification.
Objective Lens Magnification
- Using a 40x magnification objective lens reduces the diameter of the field.
- At medium power, the diameter of the field is inversely proportional to the objective lens magnification.
