At 400X total magnification, we were only able to view one cell at a time, due to the fact that the cells were separated from each other. The organelles that were visible in this type of cell were the nucleus, the cytoplasm and the cell membrane.

What cell parts are not visible with 400x microscope?

Cell organelles such as ribosomes, small vesicles, and some components of the cytoskeleton are not visible with a 400x microscope. These structures are smaller than the resolution limit of light microscopes at that magnification.


What parts of the cell were clearly visible in the onion root cells focused under hpo?

In onion root cells focused under high power magnification (hpo), the visible parts of the cell would include the nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm, and possibly cell walls. Depending on the specific staining technique or preparation method used, other organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and vacuoles may also be visible.


What organelles will be easily seen when you examine your cheek cells?

The larger organelles, such as nucleus, mitochondria, and cellular membrane.


When a cell is observed with a compound light microscope which structures will be seen?

With a compound light microscope, you will be able to see the cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, and possibly other organelles like mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus, depending on the staining or labeling techniques used. However, structures like ribosomes and smaller organelles may not be visible due to limitations in magnification.


What are the highest magnification microscope generally used to study cells?

The highest magnification microscope generally used to study cells is the electron microscope, which can magnify objects up to 2 million times. This type of microscope allows for very detailed imaging of cell structures and organelles that are not visible with lower magnification microscopes.

Name organelles that are visible in the cell?

Some organelles that are visible in the cell include the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and vacuoles. These organelles can be observed under a light microscope due to their size and distinct structures.


What organelle in a cheek cell are not visible under a light microscope?

The organelles in a cheek cell that are not visible under a light microscope are the ribosomes. These organelles are responsible for protein synthesis.


What can you see when looking through a microscope at 40x magnification?

When looking through a microscope at 40x magnification, you can see small details and structures that are not visible to the naked eye, such as individual cells, cell organelles, and microorganisms.


Which unstained cellular organelles can be seen with a compound light microscope that has a total magnification of 400?

Cell wall, nucleus and chloroplasts can be seen with a compound light microscope under a total magnification of 400 X. The chloroplasts are self pigmented hence visible. Cell wall and nucleus being very dense are also visible without staining.

What cell organelles are not visible in bacterium even with an electron microscope?

Bacteria have no organelles.


Why are some of the cell organelles not clear in the structure of the cells observed under microscope?

It is not possible to see organelles with a compound light microscope because some organelles are to small to be seen with the low magnification of the light microscope. If they can not be seen through the compound microscope they are normally looked at through the electron microscopes (transmission electron microscope {TEM} or scanning electron microscope {SEM}).


What are 2 organelles that are not visible in a cheek cell?

Two organelles that are not easily visible in a cheek cell under a light microscope are peroxisomes and lysosomes. These organelles are small and often require specialized staining techniques or electron microscopy to be visualized.


.Cheek cells do not move on their own, so you will not find these two organelles that function for cell movement. What are these organelles?

Typical animal cell organelles are: plasma membrane(cell surface membrane), cytoplasm,nucleus and. You may also see mitochondria, but only if they are large enough to be clearly visible under the microscope.


Describe in detail the appearance of a onion cell under HIGH power?

Cell boundaries (distinct black lines between the cells), and the stained cytoplasm are visible at 10 (ocular magnification) by 5 (stage magnification). The cells are very small at this point. At 10 by 10 cells are bigger and the vacuoles can be seen clearly as separate parts. Any other organelles cannot be seen by a low power microscope. As far as I remember nuclei cannot be seen in the case on onion epidermis. However, i am not too sure.


What parts of an onion cell would you see at 100X magnification?

At 100X magnification, you would be able to observe the general structure of an onion cell, including the cell wall, cell membrane, and cytoplasm. The nucleus, which contains the genetic material, may also be visible as a distinct structure within the cell. Additionally, you might see the vacuole, which is responsible for storing substances and maintaining turgor pressure. However, finer details like organelles would require higher magnification to be clearly discerned.
