QUESTION

Match the following:

Type of MicroscopeUsed for observing
(a) Bright field (1) FISH Slide
(b) Electron (2) Unstained Leptospira organisms
(c) Dark filed (3) Embryo
(d) Fluorescent (4) Virus
(e) Inverted (5) Cell division

OPTIONS

(A) a-5; c-2; b-1; e-3; d-4
(B) b-1; d-2; e-3; c-4; a-5
(C) b-4; a-5; c-2; d-1; e-3
(D) a-1; b-4; c-3; d-2; e-5

ANSWER

(C) b-4; a-5; c-2; d-1; e-3

EXPLANATION

Bright-field microscopy is used for routinely stained specimens such as embryologic/cellular preparations, electron microscopy is required for direct visualization of viruses, dark-field microscopy is classically used for unstained Leptospira, fluorescent microscopy is used for fluorescently labeled FISH preparations, and inverted microscopy is useful for observing cells and cell division in culture. The matching represented by option C is therefore correct; the other options interchange microscope types with inappropriate specimens.
