Early film technology was judged on its ability to render people's clothes accurately Early film technology was surprisingly good at representing natural skin tones Early film technology made white people look unnatural, which led to the hiring of more non-white people Early film technology was focused on making white people look more white Early film technology was developed with an eye toward making scenery look good, not humans

QUESTION 6 What impact did Eadweard Muybridge's animated pictures of a horse galloping have? a. It inspired Edison to see a business opportunity in developing motion picture technology. b. It prompted Jenkins to sell his camera patent to Edison. c. It settled a bet for Leland Stanford. d. a and c. e. none of the above. QUESTION 7 Cultural elites were critical of early motion pictures: a. Because they thought the films were too timid and boring. b. Because they viewed films as cheap, immoral entertainment for young and working-class people. c. Because they felt films would lead to a political uprising. d. Because they wanted to preserve traditional vaudeville theater. QUESTION 8 What were the two main ingredients in film stock manufactured in the early 20th century? a. Gutta percha and high-grade silicon crystal. b. Bismuth and silver. c. Nitroglycerin and cotton. d. Silver and cotton. QUESTION 9 True or false: when sound on film was invented, movies shot on location became more common and actors could move around more freely in scenes. a. True, because the early sound stages built in the 1920s opened onto empty fields and gave actors more room to dance and sing. b. True, because Jack Warner was claustrophobic. c.

32. Which of the following statements is not a true statement about Phase-contrast microscopes: a. A phase-contrast microscope takes advantage of the interference of light. b. A phase-contrast microscope makes highly transparent objects more visible. c. In a phase-contrast microscope, light from the light source is gathered by the substage condenser and shaped into a solid cone of light focused on the specimen. d. A phase-contrast microscope is most useful for examining intracellular components of living cells at relatively high resolution. e. Images from a phase-contrast microscope suffer from interfering halos and shading, produced where sharp changes in refractive index occur. 33. Fluorescence microscopy allows the observation of the location of certain molecules, which are called fluorochromes/fluorophores. During this process: a. Fluorophores absorb infrared radiation and release a portion of the energy in a shorter wavelength. b. Fluorophores absorb radiation and release a portion of the energy at longer wavelengths. c. As the light source produces only ultraviolet (black) light, objects stained with a fluorophore appear dark on a bright background. d. Fluorophores absorb ultraviolet radiation and release a portion of the energy in shorter wavelengths. e. The light source in a fluorescence microscope produces a beam of an infrared light that travels through a filter.
