Microscope 
Parts and Functions 
6th Grade Science
What are the parts?? 
 eyepiece 7. objective 
 fine adjustment 8. stage clips 
 course adjustment 9. arm 
 stage 10. base 
 mirror 11. nosepiece 
 body tube 12. diaphragm
Eyepiece 
• The eyepiece is the part of the microscope which you look through. 
• It usually has its own magnification of 10x. 
eyepiece
Fine Adjustment 
• This part of the microscope is used when changing small amounts of focus. 
Fine adjustment
Course Adjustment 
• Used when making large changes in focus on the microscope 
Course Adjustment 
• Moves the body tube up and down
Adjustment 
• Some microscopes only have ONE adjustment knob 
• If so, it is a course adjustment!
Stage 
• Where slides are placed on the microscope for viewing. 
Stage
Mirror 
• The mirror is used to reflect light from a light source up through the diaphragm 
Mirror
Body Tube 
• The body tube holds the eyepiece of a microscope and connects it to the objectives 
Body Tube
Objective 
• The magnifying lens, comes in different powers 
Objective
Stage Clips 
• The stage clips hold the slide in place 
Stage Clips
Arm 
• The arm is used for safe transportation of the microscope 
Arm
Base 
• What the microscope uses to “sit” on, also used for safe transportation 
Base
Nosepiece 
• The nosepiece holds two or more objective lenses and can be rotated to easily change 
powers 
Nosepiece
Diaphragm 
• Used to vary the amount of light which passes through the slide 
• Usually better in lower amounts 
Diaphragm
Label the Parts
