What color are microbes?

The answer depends upon which type of microbe is being looked at, but, since they are microscopic and color is produced by reflection of different frequencies of light, almost all appear to be transparent, especially the single celled microbes and those without membranes or nuclei. For purposes of study under a microscope stains are applied to the microbes so that they can be seen and when looking at microscopic pictures of bacteria and other microbes, the bright colors are produced by these stains. Exceptions to this are the microscopic plants like green algae. Since they have chlorophyll for photosynthesis, they will have some natural green coloration.
