Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
A blue or daylight filter is used to eliminate the yellow color emitted by tungsten-halogen light bulbs.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
When an objective is not screwed in tightly, not enough oil has been used on a slide when using an oil immersion lens, or the focus controls are not adjusted, an image is likely to be fuzzy or unclear, making it difficult to visualize objects. Using a plan-achromatic lens gives a flat field so that the edges of the field are in focus at the same time as the center.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
