You look through a microscope through a part called the eyepiece.
The light diaphragm
condenser - lens system that aligns and focuses the light from the lamp onto the specimen diaphragms or pinhole apertures
Ocular lens
a mirror point light throw a hole in the stage which shines light on what you want to see!!
what part of the microscope is tobe adjusted so that the greatest amount of light will pass through the stage
the nuecwleus
Mirror - It is used to reflect light through the object and lenses of the eye.
The part of the microscope is called the Condenser

the diaphragm
The light diaphragm
The light diaphragm
The substage condenser is a part of the light microscope that that serves to concentrate light from the source and focus it through the object and magnify it by the objective lens.
the diaphragm controls the amount of light entering the microscope
1. Ocular Lens (Eyepiece) - where you look through to see the image of your specimen. Magnifies the specimen 10X actual size. 2. Body tube - the long tube that supports the eyepiece and connects it to the objectives. 3. Nosepiece - the rotating part of the microscope at the bottom of the body tube; it holds the objectives. 4. Objective Lenses - (low, medium, high). Depending on the microscope, you may have 2, 3 or more objectives attached to the nosepiece; they vary in length (the shortest is the lowest power or magnification; the longest is the highest power or magnification). 5. Arm - part of the microscope that you carry the microscope with; connects the head and base of the microscope. 6. Coarse Adjustment Knob - large, round knob on the side of the microscope used for "rough" focusing of the specimen; it may move either the stage or the upper part of the microscope. Location may vary depending on microscope - it may be on the bottom of the arm or on the top. 7. Fine Adjustment Knob - small, round knob on the side of the microscope used to fine-tune the focus of your specimen after using the coarse adjustment knob. As with the Coarse Adjustment Knob, location may vary depending on the microscope. 8. Stage - large, flat area under the objectives; it has a hole in it (see aperture) that allows light through; the specimen/slide is placed on the stage for viewing. 9. Stage Clips - clips on top of the stage which hold the slide in place. 10. Aperture - the hole in the stage that concentrates light through the specimen for better viewing. 11. Diaphragm - controls the amount of light going through the aperture; may be adjusted. 12. Light or Mirror - source of light usually found near the base of the microscope; used to direct light upward through the microscope. The light source makes the specimen easier to see.
